  1. 219. LVK O4a Constraints on Primordial Black Holes
    Sachiko Kuroyanagi
    02/12/2025, 14:00

    I will review various methods for constraining primordial black holes through gravitational wave observations and discuss the latest results from the O4a run of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration.

  2. 220. Planck relics as dark matter
    Stefano Profumo
    02/12/2025, 14:30

    I will survey scenarios that produce Planck-mass relics and assess whether they can stably carry electric, magnetic, or dark charge. I’ll examine charge retention and neutralization in the late Universe (including Schwinger discharge and plasma capture), and highlight quantum-gravity effects near extremality—especially for magnetically charged and near-extremal black holes. Finally, I’ll...
