[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 …

Small-scale structure of fuzzy and axion-like dark matter
JC Niemeyer - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2020 - Elsevier
Axion-like particle (ALP) dark matter shows distinctive behavior on scales where wavelike
effects dominate over self-gravity. Ultralight axions are candidates for fuzzy dark matter …
