Unification of dark energy and dark matter

[Chris Ian Burkinshaw]

Dr James Farnes of Oxford's e-Research Centre recently proposed a new model which unifies dark energy and dark matter into a single phenomenon - a fluid which possesses "negative mass".

The theory provided the first correct prediction of the behaviour of dark matter halos - the material which holds galaxies together.

Would it be theoretically possible for galactic centred black holes to be producing and 'fountaining' out dark energy matter to create the above effect?
