Submission + - Primordial Black Holes
TropicalCoder writes: "Hawking first pointed out in 1971 that gravitationally collapsed objects, formed in the early Universe, could have accumulated at the center of a star like the Sun. At the dawn of the 21st century a principally new scenario of primordial structure formation was proposed in the models of hot Universe. These models predict phase transition in the inflation stage period and the domain walls formation. The wall collapse in the post-inflation epoch results in the formation of microscopic primordial black hole (PHB) clusters. The total mass of PBH amounts to 1% of the contemporary baryonic distribution.
If primordial low-mass black holes (PBH) exist in the Universe, than many stars and planetary bodies appear to be infected by them (pdf). This is also true in regard to the Sun and likely Jupiter and Saturn. These microscopic objects are comparable to the hydrogen atom in size. Perhaps there are even microscopic black holes buzzing inside the earth..
Unlike a solid body, a black hole would suffer very little friction in passing through the stellar material. So it passes practically unobstructed through the body of a star, as through a vacuum. In such a case the black hole may be in an orbit deep inside star, over billion years, until it is brought to rest at its center. Not a single primordial black hole, but more likely, a swarm of them orbit freely inside the planets. One can envision even a planet with the primordial black hole acting as the self-sufficient source of heating, which may explain excess heat radiated from Jupiter. Such a planet does not need the central sun for the maintenance of animal life on its surface. This may last eons. The singular source of energy cannot be exhausted and cannot die out. One may expect some observable signatures of this feature in the Universe. Observations of the Hawking radiation from the globular clusters can provide next observational signature of PBHs. It is also theorized that the new Large Hadron Collider might be capable of creating microscopic black holes through the collision of particles at relativistic velocities."
