"Too Big, Too Early" Revisited: Early Black-Hole & Galaxy Formation Conjecture in the DEAR Liquid-Crystal Lattice
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Observations from JWST, ALMA, and high-redshift quasar surveys reveal super-massive black holes (SMBHs ≳ 10⁹ M☉) and Milky-Way-scale stellar disks within the first ≈ 800 Myr of cosmic history; objects unexpectedly massive for standard ΛCDM. The NRD/DEAR Liquid-Crystal Lattice (LCL) supplies three new pathways; remnant-gravity halos, elastic funnelling, and phason-assisted cooling, which accelerate collapse without violating known baryonic physics. We outline each mechanism, quantify its timescale advantage, and list discriminating observational signatures.
