Special Dilatonic Dyon-Like Black Hole Solutions in Two-Field Model
A class of special dilatonic dyon-like black hole solutions in a model with two Abelian gauge fields and two scalar fields is explored. Motivation for the study includes dimensional reduction of supergravity models and manifestations of dark matter. The solutions involve black hole dyon solutions, a
