A research undertaken by the University of Buffalo suggests that primordial black holes (PBHs), which originated in the early cosmos, might be discovered in both cosmic and terrestrial objects. Researchers believe that these miniature black holes may have left distinctive fingerprints, such as hollow planetoids in space or miniscule tunnels in Earth's minerals. According to sources, these results open up new options for investigating the mysterious nature of PBHs, which are still unknown despite their putative relation to dark matter.
Primordial Black Holes and Possible Signatures
According to a research published in Physics of the Dark Universe, PBHs may originate in high-density areas during the universe's expansion following the Big Bang. Compared to stellar black holes, PBHs are thought to be significantly smaller, with the bulk of a mountain squeezed into an atomic-sized space. The researchers, lead by Dr. Dejan Stojkovic, a physics professor at the University of Buffalo, claim in their comments that PBHs trapped within astronomical objects such as asteroids or moons may eat their cores, leaving empty shells.
According to ScienceDaily, Dr Stojkovic stated that hollow structures constructed in this method could be no more than one-tenth the radius of the Earth. Larger hollow things would collapse owing to internal stress. Detecting such low-density celestial entities through orbital studies might aid in the identification of black hole leftovers.
Microscopic Evidence in Earth's Materials
The study also suggests that PBHs going through solid objects may form minute tunnels observable under a microscope. Dr. De-Chang Dai, co-author and physicist at National Dong Hwa University, stated that historical materials, such as ancient rocks or historic building components, may be analyzed for such evidence.
While the likelihood of a PBH interacting with terrestrial things is modest (one in a million over a billion years), Stojkovic emphasized the inexpensive expense of such research in comparison to the possible scientific gains.
