New research suggests the early Universe hosted unusual compact objects. These include primordial black holes, boson stars and cannibal stars. Formation occurred within a second after the Big Bang ...

The new study argues, however, that the detection of LAP1-B is the only one that fits three theoretical conditions for Population III stars: It formed in a low-metallicity (hydrogen and helium) ...
