Evidence mounts for dark energy from black holes

Almost 14 billion years ago, at the very beginning of the Big Bang, a mysterious energy drove an exponential expansion of the infant universe and produced all known matter, according to the prevailing inflationary universe theory.

That ancient energy shared key features of the current universe's dark energy, which is the largest mystery of our time by at least one objective standard: It makes up the majority—roughly 70%—of the universe, but scientists don't know exactly what it is.

"If you ask yourself the question, 'Where in the later universe do we see gravity as strong as it was at the beginning of the universe?' the answer is at the center of black holes," said Gregory Tarlé, professor of physics at the University of Michigan and co-author of the study. "It's possible that what happened during inflation runs in reverse, the matter of a massive star becomes dark energy again during gravitational collapse—like a little Big Bang played in reverse."

In a new study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, Tarlé and colleagues from five institutions are strengthening the case for this scenario with recent data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. DESI is made up of 5,000 robotic eyes mounted on the Mayall telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory on the land of the Tohono O'odham Nation.

"If black holes contain dark energy, they can couple to and grow with the expanding universe, causing its growth to accelerate" said Kevin Croker, lead author of the team's new study and an assistant research scientist at Arizona State University. "We can't get the details of how this is happening, but we can see evidence that it is happening."  

Data from the first year of DESI's planned five-year survey shows tantalizing evidence that the density of dark energy increased in time. This provides a compelling clue supporting this idea of what dark energy is, the researchers said, because that increase in time agrees with how the amount and mass of black holes increased in time.

"When I first got involved with the project, I was very skeptical," said co-author Steve Ahlen, professor emeritus of physics at Boston University. "But I maintained an open mind throughout the entire process and when we started doing the cosmology calculations, I said, 'Well, this is a really nice mechanism for making dark energy.'"

The difference a DESI makes

To search for evidence of dark energy from black holes, the team used tens of millions of distant galaxies measured by DESI. The instrument peers billions of years into the past and collects data that can be used to determine how fast the universe is expanding with exquisite precision. In turn, these data can be used to infer how the amount of dark energy is changing in time.

The team compared these data to how many black holes were being made in the deaths of large stars across the history of the universe.  

"The two phenomena were consistent with each other—as new black holes were made in the deaths of massive stars, the amount of dark energy in the universe increased in the right way," said Duncan Farrah, associate professor of physics at the University of Hawai'i and co-author of the study. "This makes it more plausible that black holes are the source of dark energy."  

This research complements a growing body of literature studying the possibility of cosmological coupling in black holes. A 2023 study, involving many of the authors on this paper, reported cosmological coupling in supermassive black holes within galactic centers. That 2023 report encouraged other teams to search for the effect in black holes across all the different places they can be found in the universe.  

"Those papers investigate the link between dark energy to black holes by their rate of growth. Our new paper links black holes to dark energy by when they are born," said Brian Cartwright, an astrophysicist, co-author and former general counsel of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  

A key difference in the new paper is that the majority of the relevant black holes are younger than those previously examined. These black holes were born in an epoch when star formation—which tracks black hole formation—was well underway, rather than just beginning.

"This occurs much later in the universe and is informed by recent measurements of black hole production and growth as observed with the Hubble and Webb space telescopes," said co-author Rogier Windhorst, an interdisciplinary scientist for the JWST and professor of earth and space exploration at Arizona State University.

"The next question is where these black holes are, and how they have been moving around for the past 8 billion years. Scientists are working to constrain this right now," Croker said.

Science demands more avenues of inquiry and observations, and now that DESI is online, this exploration for dark energy is just getting started. 

“This will only bring more depth and clarity to our understanding of dark energy, whether that continues to support the black hole hypothesis or not," Ahlen said. "I think as an experimental endeavor, it's wonderful. You can have preconceived notions or not, but we're driven by data and observations."

Regardless of what those future observations bring, the work happening now represents a sea change in dark energy research, the team said.

"Fundamentally, whether black holes are dark energy, coupled to the universe they inhabit, has ceased to be just a theoretical question," Tarlé said. "This is an experimental question now."

These early galaxies are among the most active star-forming galaxies observed between 10.5 and 11.5 billion years ago. Each galaxy seen in this image is therefore producing many black holes, which are converting matter into dark energy according to the cosmologically coupled black hole hypothesis. This image shows the two "modules" of JWST NIRCam: The leftmost module contains the protocluster, and the rightmost module is an adjacent blank field. Each module sees thousands of galaxies.

Max, Costa Rica, Tag 5

Im Westen viel Neues

Weiterhin fühlen wir uns wohl, weiterhin sind die Leute mehr als hilfsbereit und aufgeschlossen. Das geht mittlerweile so weit, dass augenscheinlich extra für uns Waschbären ausgesetzt wurden, damit moh ahlen Kasslaner uns au so richtch doheeme fühlen kunnen.

Der heutige Tag begann wieder um sieben Uhr morgens. Trotz dessen, dass wir beide seit etwa vier Uhr mehr oder weniger wach waren (was geht denn beim Jetlag?!) musste ich recht viel Energie in das Wecken von Nico investieren, was ich wiederum als positives Zeichen einer Normalisierung der Schlafrhythmus werte. Schnurstracks ging es los, denn unser Hostelbesitzer riet uns zu einer Wanderung nach Mal País. Nach einem guten, leider in costa-ricanischer Manier etwas arg teuren Frühstück, ging es südwärts den Strand entlang, den wir zu 90% komplett für uns alleine hatten. Klar, der Name des Landes kommt von irgendeinem Gold-Schürf-Scheiß. Aber eindrucksvoll wurde bewiesen, dass Reichtum auch etwas anderes sein kann. Auf unserer kleinen Wanderung trafen wir einen Leguan, einen Pelikan, Kolibris, Brüllaffen, Bunthörnchen, Salamander, Spechte, coole Einsiedlerkrebse, verrückte Reiher, Eisvögel, Geier - you name it.

Und hey, die eigentliche Sensation ist ja die: inmitten dieser Wanderung haben wir ernsthaft und unironisch - ich erzähle jetzt keinen Scheiß - locker eine halbe Stunde einfach am Strand gechillt. Wer uns kennt, weiß, dass das etwa so wahrscheinlich ist wie dass Claus für eben jenen Zeitraum keine Zigarette in der Hand hält. Und so ging es weiter und weiter Richtung Süden, hinein ins Naturreservat und wieder zurück - unsere Faustregel „unter 20.000 Schritte am Tag ist es kein Urlaub“ haben wir schon jetzt am frühen Abend um über 50% übertroffen.

Zum späten Mittagessen gab es dann Ceviche Mixto, das ich nach Josis Cannelloni wohl mein Lieblingsessen nennen könnte. Dass Nico es auch so gut fand, hat mein südamerika-fetischisiertes Herz höher schlagen lassen. Im Anschluss ging es dann an den Strand, um wiedermal den Sonnenuntergang zu genießen. Danach spielte ich noch mit ein paar Süd- Mittel- und Nordamerikanern eine Runde Hochhalten. Sicher hat in diesem Verhältnis mein fetafarbener Oberkörper ein lustiges Bild abgegeben. Nico aber, der in diesem Moment für mich in die Preschen springt und mich vor der Hostelkatze rettet, war wiedermal zu höflich, um diese komische Situation als solche zu benennen.

AAAAAAAA thank you! And of course! I'm already going to be tagging all the creators who's vns were included so that'll be no problem! Quick question- What type of music would Dorian listen to? He's been the hardest one for me so far because he got that m y s t er y vibe around him diskdjkwofoe

I give you this meme before skedaddling back into my closet:

here's his playlist for a starting off point! a lot of what's you'd hear in game soundtracks, or stuff from artists like timbre, david ahlen, etc

love the meme btw
