(H)airborne: two spinning black holes balanced by their synchronised scalar hair

General Relativity minimally coupled to a massive, free, complex scalar field, is shown to allow asymptotically flat solutions, non-singular on and outside the event horizon, describing two spinning black holes (2sBHs) in equilibrium, with co-axial, aligned angular momenta. The 2sBHs configurations bifurcate from solutions describing dipolar spinning boson stars. The BHs emerge at equilibrium points diagnosed by a test particle analysis and illustrated by a Newtonian analogue. The individual BH "charges" are mass and angular momentum only. Equilibrium is due to the scalar environment, acting as a (compact) dipolar field, providing a lift against their mutual attraction, making the 2sBHs (h)airborne. We explore the 2sBHs domain of solutions and its main features.
