It just so happens that some physicists believe dark stars can emit a form of exotic matter, perhaps a new massless particle we've yet to discover, or they could potentially account for the mysterious dark matter-which accounts for over 85% of the mass in our universe, yet doesn't interact with light, therefore its origin and purpose remain a mystery physicists are dying to solve. Dark Matter's Origin Solved? Black hole having a snack Source: JPL-Caltech/NASAīy removing the singularity from the equation, we get a "black hole" or "dark star" with exotic principles. Now, a new research paper has shed more light on our understanding of how dark stars would operate. In doing so, the light would stretch in a quantifiable way: we would be able to observe its redshift (when the light's wavelength shifts to a reddish color). Therefore, these "dark stars" may not have a singularity, therefore it's possible that tiny particles-such as light-can escape its gravitational pull. Needless to say, the Planck length is extremely tiny, but not infinitely so. To measure the atomic diameter in Planck lengths would take you 10,000,000 times the current age of the universe." Suppose that you measured the diameter of an atom in Planck lengths and that you counted off one Planck length per second. Researcher Joe Wolfe, at the University of New South Wales expands, "To give you an idea, let's compare it with the size of an atom, which is already about 100,000 times smaller than anything you can see with your unaided eye (an atom size is about 0.000,000,000,1 meters). These objects may appear to be black holes, but instead of an infinitely dense core, dark stars contain a core of matter compressed to the tiniest possible scale, what is known as a “Planck core” (named for the incredibly tiny Planck length, a unit of measurement which is 10^-35 meters, around 100 trillion times smaller than a proton). To get around this, some physicists have proposed singularity-free black holes, called “dark stars”. However, some researchers believe singularities may actually be impossible, arguing that matter is not capable of collapsing to an infinitely small point. The fabric of space and time around the singularity is theorized to be curved to an infinite degree, so the laws of physics as we know them break down. Research suggests that this is where the mass of the object that created the black hole has collapsed to an infinitely dense extent. These regions are called black holes, and the threshold around the black hole where the escape velocity surpasses the speed of light is called the event horizon.Īdditionally, it is thought that w ithin the event horizon, is located the black hole's singularity.
