Abstract Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are a viable candidate to comprise some or all of the dark matter and provide a unique window into the high-energy physics of the early universe …
This Horizon Study describes a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave observatory: Cosmic Explorer. With ten times the sensitivity of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic …
Abstract The Einstein Telescope (ET), a proposed European ground-based gravitational- wave detector of third-generation, is an evolution of second-generation detectors such as …
Recent population studies have searched for a subpopulation of primordial black holes (PBHs) in the gravitational-wave (GW) events so far detected by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA (LVK) …

We present a search for subsolar mass ultracompact objects in data obtained during Advanced LIGO's second observing run. In contrast to a previous search of Advanced LIGO …
The next generation of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors will observe coalescences of black holes and neutron stars throughout the cosmos, thousands of them …
A population of primordial black holes formed in the early Universe could contribute to at least a fraction of the black-hole merger events detectable by current and future gravitational …
Exploring dark matter via observations of extreme astrophysical environments--defined here as heavy compact objects such as white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes, as well as …
Dark matter (DM) from the galactic halo can accumulate in neutron stars and transmute them into sub-2.5 M⊙ black holes if the dark matter particles are heavy, stable, and have …
