Black Holes May Hide Cores of Pure Dark Energy That Keep The Universe Expanding

A fifty-year-old hypothesis predicting the existence of bodies dubbed Generic Objects of Dark Energy (GEODEs) is getting a second look in light of a proposed correction to assumptions we use to model the way our Universe expands.

What would happen if dark matter was near a black hole?

Are they suggesting that cores emit dark energy like a stars magnetic lines emit energy?

it would behave like any other stuff that interact gravitationally. whether it would emit light if accelerated enough would depend on what DM is made of.

I still prefer the cosmological constant as an explanation of dark energy. Not GEODEs.

That said, it has been speculated that concentrated dark energy could build up inside black holes to oppose the gravitational infall. Not like gas pressure because gravity attracts pressure as well as mass. I think it very unlikely, but not totally impossible.

Best guess is that it would fall in just like baryonic matter. Baryon number conservation fails inside a black hole, and that lets the nonbaryonic dark matter behave just like normal baryonic matter.

Surely the cosmological constant is merely a mathematical fudge, not an explanation.

No more a mathematical fudge than conservation of momentum.
