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…
Dark Matter at the Center and in the Halo of the Galaxy
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…
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…
