Positive Indications for Primordial Black Holes
摘要
Until recently, the focus of PBH research has mostly been either on formation or constraints. While being important, too little emphasis has been on the actual detections which could plausibly be allocated to PBHs. In fact, as we will see below, it can be said with increasing levels of confidence that those macroscopic dark matter bodies may have already been observed years ago. The present Chapter is about precisely this Positivist Perspective. It summarises a longer recent review article [41] by Bernard Carr, Sébastien Clesse, Juan Garía-Bellido, Michael Hawkins as well as the author, and focuses on the most important pieces of claimed evidence.
