A Common Origin of Neutralino Stars and Supermassive Black Holes

To account for the microlensing events observed in the Galactic halo, Gurevich, Zybin, and Sirota have proposed a model of gravitationally bound, noncompact objects with masses of 0.01-1M_\odot. These objects are formed in the expanding Universe from adiabatic density perturbations and consist of weakly interacting particles of dark matter, for example, neutralinos. They assumed the perturbation spectrum on some small scale to have a distinct peak. We show that the existence of this peak would inevitably give rise to a large number of primordial black holes (PBHs) with masses of \sim10^5M_\odot at the radiation-dominated evolutionary stage of the Universe. Constraints on the coefficient of nonlinear contraction and on the compactness parameter of noncompact objects were derived from constraints on the PBH number density. We show that noncompact objects can serve as gravitational lenses only at a large PBH formation threshold, δ_c > 0.5, or if noncompact objects are formed from entropic density perturbations.
