Exotic Compact Objects in a Dissipative Dark Sector
ORAL
Abstract
We study the complete history of structure formation of a simple dark sector and show how to form exotic compact objects that vary in size from a few to millions of solar masses. These exotic compact objects may be detected and their properties measured at new high- precision astronomical observatories, giving insight into the particle nature of the dark sector without the requirement of non-gravitational interactions with the visible sector.
