Abstract
We study scalarization of horizonless neutral compact reflecting stars. In our model, the scalar hair can be induced by the coupling of static scalar fields to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. We analytically obtain lower bounds on the coupling parameter. Below the bound, the static scalar hair cannot form. And above the bound, we numerically get the discrete coupling parameter that can support scalar hairs outside stars. We also disclose effects of model parameters on the discrete coupling parameter.
