Dark Matter Could Create Dark Dwarfs at the Center of the Milky Way

Although dark matter doesn't seem to interact with regular matter or itself, if it has particle-like properties, it could self-annihilate if packed into a tight space.

The dark matter could annihilate inside the brown dwarfs, creating Dark Dwarfs that could be detected.
