[HTML][HTML] Observational evidence for primordial black holes: A positivist perspective

BJ Carr, S Clesse, J Garcia-Bellido, MRS Hawkins… - Physics Reports, 2024 - Elsevier
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 …

Breakdown of the Newton–Einstein Standard Gravity at Low Acceleration in Internal Dynamics of Wide Binary Stars

KH Chae - The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
A gravitational anomaly is found at weak gravitational acceleration g N≲ 10− 9 ms− 2 from
analyses of the dynamics of wide binary stars selected from the Gaia DR3 database that …

New relativistic theory for modified Newtonian dynamics

C Skordis, T Złośnik - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We propose a relativistic gravitational theory leading to modified Newtonian dynamics, a
paradigm that explains the observed universal galactic acceleration scale and related …

A new era in the search for dark matter

G Bertone, TMP Tait - Nature, 2018 - nature.com
There is a growing sense of 'crisis' in the dark-matter particle community, which arises from
the absence of evidence for the most popular candidates for dark-matter particles—such as …

Gravity experiments with radio pulsars

PCC Freire, N Wex - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2024 - Springer
The discovery of the first pulsar in a binary star system, the Hulse–Taylor pulsar, 50 years
ago opened up an entirely new field of experimental gravity. For the first time it was possible …

Stellar and substellar companions of nearby stars from gaia dr2-binarity from proper motion anomaly

P Kervella, F Arenou, F Mignard, F Thévenin - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 - aanda.org

History of dark matter

G Bertone, D Hooper - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2018 - APS
Although dark matter is a central element of modern cosmology, the history of how it became
accepted as part of the dominant paradigm is often ignored or condensed into an anecdotal …
