Quantized Gravitational Radiation from Black Holes and other Macro Holeums in the Low Frequency Domain

TL;DR

This paper proposes that Macro Holeums, gravitational bound states of microscopic black holes, emit quantized gravitational radiation in the LIGO frequency range, suggesting black holes have internal structure and contribute to a background gravitational wave spectrum.

Contribution

It introduces a new class of gravitational bound states called Macro Holeums, deriving analytic formulas for their properties and predicting their gravitational wave emissions in the LIGO frequency band.

Findings

Macro Holeums emit hydrogen-like gravitational spectra.

Black holes may have internal structure as Macro Holeums.

Predicted gravitational radiation overlaps with background from distant Macro Holeums.

Abstract

A gravitational bound state, called a Macro Holeum, is created from a very large number of microscopic black holes of primordial or a non-primordial origin. All of them undergo orbital motion, under the action of gravity, around their common center of mass. Four classes of Macro Holeum emerge: H, BH, HH and LH. The latter is a massless bundle of gravitational energy moving at the speed of light. The others are Dark Matter objects. BH emits Hawking radiation but the others do not. The presently existing black holes are identified with BH. All, except LH, emit gravitational radiation due to internal quantum transitions. Simple analytic formulae are derived for the energy eigenvalues, mass, radius, density and the frequency of the gravitational radiation emitted by Macro Holeums in terms of just two parameters which can be determined from the gravitational spectra. We predict that black holes have internal structure and that they and other Macro Holeums, having masses in the range 57 solar masses to 870 solar masses, would emit hydrogen-like gravitational radiation in the LIGO frequency range in the form of band or line spectra with a considerable overlapping of the bands. This will be superposed on a uniform background radiation coming from Macro Holeums at large distances greater than 100 Mpc. 04.60.-m, 04.60.Bc, 04.30.-w, 04.30.Tv, 95.35.+d, 95.36.+x
