Overview:

The workshop will focus on the production, astrophysical effects, and

ongoing search for primordial black holes, which can account for all or part of dark matter and whose existence could have important astrophysical consequences. The subject has a strong overlap with scientific programs at Kavli IPMU, as it engages particle physicists, astrophysicists, and cosmologists, building on synergy of the multidisciplinary institute.
