Gravitational Wave Bursts from Collisions of Primordial Black Holes in Clusters
arXiv:1003.4158 · doi:10.1134/S1063773709030013
Abstract
The rate of gravitational wave bursts from the mergers of massive primordial black holes in clusters is calculated. Such clusters of black holes can be formed through phase transitions in the early Universe. The central black holes in clusters can serve as the seeds of supermassive black holes in galactic nuclei. The expected burst detection rate by the LISA gravitational wave detector is estimated.
