Black Holes as Dark Matter
While the energy of the universe has been established to be about 0.04 baryons, 0.24 dark matter and 0.72 dark energy, the cosmological entropy is almost entirely, about (1−10), from black holes and only 10 from everything else. This identification of all dark matter as black holes is natural in statistical mechanics. Cosmological history of dark matter is discussed. [email protected]
متن کاملBlack Holes as Dark Matter Annihilation “Boosters”
The presence and growth of Intermediate and Supermassive Black Holes modify the surrounding distribution of stars and Dark Matter, and inevitably affect the prospects for indirectly detecting Dark Matter through its annihilation products. We show here that under specific circumstances, Black Holes can act as Dark Matter annihilation “boosters”. In particular, we show that mini-spikes, i.e. Dark...
متن کاملPrimordial Black Holes as Dark Matter: the Power Spectrum and Evaporation of Early Structures
We consider the possibility that massive primordial black holes are the dominant form of dark matter. Black hole formation generates entropy fluctuations that adds a Poisson noise to the matter power spectrum. We use Ly-α forest observations to constrain this Poisson term in matter power spectrum, then we constrain the mass of black holes to be less than ∼ few × 10 M⊙. We also find that structu...
متن کاملPrimordial Black Holes and Hot Matter
Microscopic black holes explode with their temperature varying inversely as their mass. Such explosions would lead to the highest temperatures in the present universe, all the way to the Planck energy. The possibility that a quasi-stationary shell of hot matter surrounds these black holes has recently been proposed and studied with relativistic Boltzmann transport equations and with relativisti...
متن کاملIdentification of All Dark Matter as Black Holes
For the universe I use dimensionless entropy S/k = lnΩ for which the most convenient unit is the googol (10) and identify all dark matter as black holes whereupon the present entropy is about a thousand googols. While the energy of the universe has been established to be about 0.04 baryons, 0.24 dark matter and 0.72 dark energy, the cosmological entropy is almost entirely, about (1− 10), from b...
