Overview:

    Primordial black holes were brought in sharper focus by recent progress in theoretical understanding, as well as observations in traditional and gravitational wave astronomy.  There is growing evidence that black holes exist, but their origin is not well understood.  Black holes of primordial origin could be an important component of dark matter in today’s universe, and they could be the key to a range of astrophysical puzzles.  The subject of primordial black holes has a strong overlap with scientific programs at Kavli IPMU, and it engages particle physicists, astrophysicists, and cosmologists to work together, building on synergy of the multidisciplinary institute.
