Cosmological Entropy and Black Holes in Galactic Halos

Abstract

In this talk we discuss intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) by their amplilification of distant sources; MACHO searches have studied event times 2ht02y2 h \lesssim t_0 \lesssim 2 y corresponding masses in the range 106MM100M10^{-6} M_{\odot} \lesssim M \lesssim 100 M_{\odot}. We suggest that larger masses up to 106M10^6 M_{\odot} are also of considerable interest by arguments about the entropy of the universe. One percent by mass of dark energy can provide ninety-nine percent of total entropy.
