"Hidden masses" and dynamical evolution of stellar systems.
Abstract
The dynamic evolution of stellar systems containing 'hidden masses' is analyzed. The results show that the compact objects which can account for 'hidden masses', such as faint low-mass stars and cold blobs of neutral hydrogen, are probably a peculiar population that could not have originated in common with the normal visible population of galaxies. It is suggested that if 'hidden-mass' compact objects are detected by direct observations, they might constitute a Population III in stellar systems.
