When listener Daniel poses a theory linking black holes to dark
matter and dark energy, Andrew and Fred embark on an adventure to
uncover the truth and explore the potential for a Nobel Prize, but
must prove the revolutionary theory before time runs out. You will
learn how to unlock the secrets of the mysterious dark energy that
powers the universe.

Show Notes Learn about Dark energy with Andrew Dunkley and
Professor Fred Watson. They discussed the potential for the
discovery of a source for dark energy, which Daniel from Adelaide
theorized could be black holes that suck up normal matter and
energy and convert them to dark matter and dark energy.
C0-incidentally, a paper published this week links black holes to
dark energy, but not dark matter. It states that black holes
generate an energy that is somehow coupled to the universe's
expansion, providing the energy required for the universe's
acceleration. Duncan Farrer of the University of Hawaii said that
this is the first proposed astrophyiscal source for dark energy and
could result in a Nobel Prize. Lastly, they discussed the danger of
rubble pile asteroids, and other listener questions. "Keep an
eye on your letterboxes, because that's sure to arrive. Great
stuff, Daniel. And you are, in a sense, ahead of the curve there
because for the first time we've seen this week a paper, scientific
paper, that exactly does that links black holes with dark energy.
Not with dark matter, but with dark energy. Now, what is different
from the Daniel theory is the mechanism for this. It doesn't
involve things being spat out of black holes at speed of
light'. In this episode, you will learn the following:

Could black holes be the source of dark matter and dark energy?Are
black holes the source of the energy that is causing the universe
to expand ever more rapidly?What would happen if the Earth's
magnetic field flipped?#astronomy #space #science #news
