Massive compact halo object - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (801 words)
MACHOs may sometimes be fl holes or neutron stars as well as brown dwarfs or unassociated planets.
Other forms of MACHO are seen when the MACHO passes in front of or nearly in front of a star and the MACHO's gravity bends the light, causing the star to appear smaller and brighter in an example of gravitational lensing known as gravitational microlensing.
Recent work has also suggested that ancient MACHOs are not likely to account for the large amounts of dark matter now thought to be present in the universe; the Big Bang as it is currently understood simply couldn't produce enough baryons without causing major problems in the observed elemental abundances, particularly the abundance of deuterium.
