abstract = "Different studies show that dark matter of non-baryonic origin
might exist. There is experimental evidence that at least one form
of dark matter has been detected through microlensing effects.
This form of dark matter is named MACHOs (massive astrophysical
compact halo objects). The MACHO collaboration estimated that the
masses of these objects are to be in the range 0.15–0.95M_, where
the most probable mass is of 0.5M_. Some authors argue that MACHOs
could be black holes, and that they could form binary systems,
BHMACHO binaries. As is well known, binary systems are sources of
gravitational waves. The Brazilian spherical antenna will operate
in the frequency band of 3.0–3.4 kHz, sensitive to binaries of a
pair of 0.5M_ black holes just before coalescing. In the present
work we study the detectability of these putative BHMACHO binaries
by the Brazilian spherical antenna Mario Schenberg.",
