except there's a lot of other characteristics that dark matter needs to have.

And so, if you had a cloud of dark matter that was around a black hole, it's not going

to go into an accretion disk in the same way.

It's going to have these three-body gravitational interactions between the particles, which

could indeed send particles of dark matter into the black hole, into the event horizon,

and they become part of the black hole.

But you're not going to get it as an efficient process as you do with regular matter that

can experience this friction.

And so one of the really interesting ideas about trying to detect dark matter is, can

you find a place where dark matter could be compacted down into an area where it is

experiencing enough sort of compression that it starts to annihilate itself and release heat?

And so astronomers have thought that you could actually look for dark matter inside various

astronomical objects.

You could look for excess heat coming out of the sun, excess heat coming out of planets,
