- Black holes (BH) are among the most unusual and exciting physical objects. Besides being simultaneously Relativistic and quantum mechanical objects, which allows the discovery and/or tests of new physics, BHs also present a lack of "individuality". As a recall, if two stars have the same mass M and angular momentum J, nothing binds them to be distributed in the same way in both stars. However, two distinctly originated BH with the same M and J, will be indistinguishable. In recent years, several alternative models of ultra-compact objects have emerged to explain the unknown Universe. Between them, objects made and/or surrounded by bosonic fields are at the centre of recent developments. This thesis aims to construct and study such bosonic objects. In particular, the scalarization phenomena - where a BH gets immersed in a non-trivial scalar field - and the construction of Boson Stars - self-gravitating configurations of bosonic fields; as well as techniques to study them, namely: decomposition into spherical harmonics and the "complete" study of the virial identity through Derrick's argument. In this regard, we have constructed a parallelized, adaptative-step 6(5) order Runge-Kutta integrator to solve, with very high accuracy, the set of ODEs. Concerning PDEs, we resort to a professional solver (CADSOL/FIDISOL program package) due to the added complexity.
