AFAIK, there isn't one. Although {luSpet} means "black hole", this word
cannot be broken down any further - neither {luS} nor {pet} exist as
separate lexemes (or is it morpheme?). I think the closest we can get is
{'och} "tunnel". I have seen {*'och'a'} used for "worm hole" (like the one
by DS9) in a story.
