The power spectrum on small scales: Robust constraints and comparing PBH methodologies

Andrew D. Gow, Christian T. Byrnes, Philippa S. Cole +1

We compare primordial black hole (PBH) constraints on the power spectrum and mass distributions using the traditional Press Schechter formalism, peaks theory, and a recently develo…

Small-scale primordial fluctuations in the 21cm Dark Ages signal

Philippa S. Cole, Joseph Silk

Primordial black hole production in the mass range is motivated respectively by interpretations of the LIGO/Virgo observations of binary black hole merger…

Spectral Distortions of the CMB as a Probe of Inflation, Recombination, Structure Formation and Particle Physics

J. Chluba, A. Kogut, S. P. Patil +98

Following the pioneering observations with COBE in the early 1990s, studies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have focused on temperature and polarization anisotropies. CMB…

Electromagnetic probes of primordial black holes as dark matter

Y. Ali-Haimoud, S. Clesse, J. Garcia-Bellido +91

The LIGO discoveries have rekindled suggestions that primordial black holes (BHs) may constitute part to all of the dark matter (DM) in the Universe. Such suggestions came from 1)…

Steepest growth of the power spectrum and primordial black holes

Christian T. Byrnes, Philippa S. Cole, Subodh P. Patil

We derive analytic bounds on the shape of the primordial power spectrum in the context of single-field inflation. In particular, the steepest possible growth has a spectral index o…
