Abstract

We construct finite mass, asymptotically flat black hole solutions in d=4 Einstein—Yang-Mills theory augmented with higher order curvature terms of the gauge field. They possess non-Abelian hair in addition to Coulomb electric charge, and, below some nonzero critical temperature, they are thermodynamically preferred over the Reissner-Nordström solution. Our results indicate the existence of hairy non-Abelian black holes which are stable under linear, spherically symmetric perturbations.
