Constraining the primordial black hole scenario with Bayesian inference and machine learning: the GWTC-2 gravitational wave catalog
Primordial black holes (PBHs) might be formed in the early Universe and could comprise at
least a fraction of the dark matter. Using the recently released GWTC-2 dataset from the third …
