Accelerating massive galaxy formation with primordial black hole seed nuclei
Jeremy Mould
If massive primordial black holes (PBHs) exist and constitute a fraction of the dark matter, they can dramatically catalyze galaxy formation. By acting as pre-existing, high-densit…
Are carbon deflagration supernovae triggered by dark matter ?
Jeremy Mould
Collisions between stellar remnants and dark matter in the Galactic bulge are frequent, and the kinetic energy of a primordial black hole incident on a white dwarf, if it is all th…
Pregalactic globular cluster formation
Jeremy Mould, Jarrod Hurley
The QCD phase transition in the early universe may provide primordial black hole nuclei for globular clusters. We consider the accretion and star formation that follow, once 1000 s…
If quasars form from primordial black holes
Jeremy Mould, Adam Batten
We explore the consequences of a novel but increasingly well-supported hypothesis that supermassive black holes may have formed from primordial black holes form ed prior to, and ra…
