Observational Evidence for Primordial Black Holes: A Positivist Perspective

Bernard Carr, Sebastien Clesse, Juan Garcia-Bellido +2

We review numerous arguments for primordial black holes (PBHs) based on observational evidence from a variety of lensing, dynamical, accretion and gravitational-wave effects. This…

Complete classification of Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker solutions with linear equation of state: parallelly propagated curvature singularities for general geodesics

Tomohiro Harada, Takahisa Igata, Takuma Sato +1

We completely classify the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker solutions with spatial curvature for perfect fluids with linear equation of state , where and $…

Primordial Black Holes as Dark Matter Candidates

Bernard Carr, Florian Kuhnel

We review the formation and evaporation of primordial black holes (PBHs) and their possible contribution to dark matter. Various constraints suggest they could only provide most of…

Black Holes and WIMPs: All or Nothing or Something Else

Bernard Carr, Florian Kuhnel, Luca Visinelli

We consider constraints on primordial black holes (PBHs) in the mass range if the dark matter (DM) comprises weakly interacting massive par…

Constraints on Stupendously Large Black Holes

Bernard Carr, Florian Kuhnel, Luca Visinelli

We consider the observational constraints on stupendously large black holes (SLABs) in the mass range . These have attracted little attention hitherto…

Self-complete and GUP-Modified Charged and Spinning Black Holes

Bernard Carr, Heather Mentzer, Jonas Mureika +1

We explore some implications of our previous proposal, motivated in part by the Generalised Uncertainty Principle (GUP) and the possibility that black holes have quantum mechanical…
