Evidence for Hydro - Gravitational Structure Formation Theory versus Cold - Dark - Matter , Hierarchical - Clustering , and Jeans 1902

Observations are compared to conflicting predictions about self-gravitational structure formation by the hydro-gravitational theory (HGT) of Gibson 19962003 versus cold-dark-matter hierarchical-clustering-cosmology (CDMHCC) and the Jeans 1902 criterion. According to HGT, gravitational structures form immediately after mass-energy equality by plasma fragmentation at 30,000 years when viscous and weak turbulence forces first balance gravitational forces within the horizon LH ≡ ct < LJ = c/[3ρG], contrary to the Jeans 1902 criterion. Buoyancy forces fossilize the 10 s rate-of-strain and the 10 kg m baryonic density. The non-baryonic dark matter (NBDM) diffuses into the voids rather than forming cold-dark-matter (CDM) halos required by CDMHCC. From HGT, supercluster-mass to galaxy-mass fragments exist at the plasma to gas transition, and these fragment further to form proto-globular-star clusters (PGCs) and planetary-mass primordial-fog-particles (PFPs): the baryonic dark matter of the interstellar-medium and inner-galaxy-dark-matter-halos, from which all planets and stars are formed by accretion (Gibson 1996, Schild 1996). From HGT and a rich cluster mass profile (Tyson & Fischer 1995), DNBDM ≈ 6 × 10 m s, mNBDM ≤ 10 kg, and the NBDM forms outer-galaxy halos after 300,000 years.
