The Road to Normalcy: Environment-Driven Evolutionary Pathways for Primordial Black Holes

Saiyang Zhang, Junehyoung Jeon, Boyuan Liu +2

We investigate how cosmological environment regulates the evolution of primordial black hole (PBH) seeds in the early universe using a suite of hydrodynamical simulations. Unlike t…
