Primordial black holes

The research explores various physical mechanisms for creating primordial black holes (PBHs) in the early Universe, such as inflation features and phase transitions. It then examines how these PBHs affect dark matter distribution and gravitational waves, providing constraints from microlensing and accretion data. The study concludes by pointing toward future observational tests to confirm or rule out specific formation models.
