Mainz Theory Palaver: Gravitational waves from primordial fluctuations

• Guillem Domenech (Leibniz U Hannover)

Room: Lorentz Raum (Staudingerweg 7, 05-127) The evolution of density fluctuations in the early universe inevitably generates gravitational waves. Cosmic microwave background observations measured such primordial density fluctuations on the largest scales in our universe (> Mpc). These large-scale fluctuations began their evolution days or years after the Big Bang. How was the universe at earlier times and on smaller scales? At the moment, we do not know much. But gravitational wave observations will provide new information in the next decades. In this talk, I will provide an overview of the so-called induced gravitational waves and how they can be used to probe the presence of primordial black holes. I will place emphasis on the effect of particle interactions on the resulting gravitational wave spectrum. On the occasion of the MITP conference, I will briefly discuss the implications of detecting high-frequency GWs for the primordial black hole scenario. Note that this talk is part of the regular Mainz Theory Group seminar series, and will take place in the Lorentz Room, not the MITP seminar room.

Gravitational Wave Signatures of Primordial Black Holes Room: Staudingerweg 7, Lorentz Raum 05-127 The existence of primordial black holes can be probed through the gravitational waves generated during their formation and subsequent evolution. In this talk, we will explore different frequency ranges and the corresponding experiments designed to test their existence. We will cover the spectrum from ultra-low-frequency gravitational waves—targeted by future missions such as LiteBIRD—to current experiments using pulsar timing arrays and the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network, as well as upcoming efforts in the ultra-high-frequency domain. Note that this talk is part of the regular Mainz Theory Group seminar series, and will take place in the Lorentz Room, not the MITP seminar room.
