Primordial black holes and the search for dark matter from the multiverse

The Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU) is home to many interdisciplinary projects which benefit from the synergy of a wide range of expertise available at the institute. One such project is the study of black holes that could have formed in the early universe, before stars and galaxies were born.

Dark Matter Experiment Finds Unexplained Signal

Researchers say there are three possible explanations for the anomalous data. One is mundane. Two would revolutionize physics.
