- galactic halos, accelerated expansion
halo paper, maybe read someday? https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article/492/2/3047/5626368
- Q01.KL: over what radio-microwave-optical-UV bands is "dark" measured?
- Q02.KL: do the different bands scale the same over time?
- Q03.KL: some phenomena dissipate, others (i.e. black holes) accumulate at large scale and evaporate at tiny scale. How does this affect what we observe?
- Q04.KL: the universe is 3D+T; curved but not topologically complex. How might early topo-complexity "large" scale initial wormholes?) dissipate and affect observed energy and temperature?
