A Symbiotic Scenario for the Rapid Formation of Supermassive Black Holes

M. C. Richter, G. B. Tupper, R. D. Viollier

The most massive black holes, lurking at the centers of large galaxies, must have formed less than a billion years after the big bang, as they are visible today in the form of brig…

Transient acceleration from a hybrid Chaplygin gas

Neven Bilic, Gary B. Tupper, Raoul D. Viollier

We extend the Chaplygin gas model for dark matter and dark energy unification by promoting the Chaplygin gas parameter A to the potential for an extra scalar with canonical kinetic…

Born-Infeld Phantom Gravastars

Neven Bilic, Gary B. Tupper, Raoul D. Viollier

We construct new gravitational vacuum star solutions with a Born-Infeld phantom replacing the de Sitter interior. The model allows for a wide range of masses and radii required by…

Inhomogeneous Chaplygin Gas Cosmology

Neven Bilic, Robert J. Lindebaum, Gary B. Tupper +1

The hypothesis that dark matter and dark energy are unified through the Chaplygin gas is reexamined. Using a generalization of the spherical model which incorporates effects of the…

Supermassive fermion balls and constraints from stellar dynamics near Sgr A*

Neven Bilic, Gary B Tupper, Raoul D Viollier

All presently known stellar-dynamical constraints on the size and mass of the supermassive compact dark object at the Galactic center are consistent with a ball of self-gravitating…

Nonlinear evolution of dark matter and dark energy in the Chaplygin-gas cosmology

Neven Bilic, Robert J. Lindebaum, Gary B. Tupper +1

The hypothesis that dark matter and dark energy are unified through the Chaplygin gas is reexamined. Using generalizations of the spherical model which incorporate effects of the a…
