Gravity seminar - Chris Kouvaris Seminar

Abstract: Primordial black holes could account for part of the dark
matter relic abundance. This talk will review the constraints on this
possible scenario and focus on the production of gravitational waves
from the epoch of the primordial black hole formation in an early matter
domination phase of the Universe, using a non-perturbative technique.
The prospects of detection for this gravitational wave background will
be discussed.
