</font>Abstract: </b>"Saturons"
are macroscopic objects that
exhibit maximal micristate
degeneracy within the validity of
a given quantum field theoretic
description. Due to this feature,
saturons and black holes belong to
the same universality class with
common key properties. However,
as opposed to black holes,
saturons can emerge in
renormalizable gauge theories, in
the form of solitons, baryons and
other bound states. After
reviewing the general properties
of saturons, we discuss their
potential implication for dark
matter. Due to the maximal
microstate entropy, the saturon
dark matter can form as a result
of a direct quantum transition
from the radiation thermal bath.
Correspondingly, it can provide a
superheavy dark matter formed at
very low temperatures. </font>
