DESCRIPTION:Registration closed on 20 March 2026 11:59 P.M. CET.\nInterest
  in black holes in general\, and primordial black holes in particular\, ha
 s grown significantly since the first detection of gravitational waves ten
  years ago. While primordial black holes have not yet been definitively ob
 served\, depending on their mass they can be well motivated dark matter ca
 ndidates\, create dark matter particles when they evaporate or provide see
 ds for supermassive black holes. They constitute unique probes of physics 
 in the early universe and could provide definitive information on the part
 icle spectrum of nature. In addition to the gravitational wave experiments
  LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA\, a large variety of different experiments can constrain
  the abundance of primordial black holes. We plan to bring together a dive
 rse range of theorists and experimentalists whose research focuses on prim
 ordial black holes. We will discuss questions surrounding PBH formation\, 
 theoretical prospects (including synergies with beyond the Standard Model 
 physics) and experimental detection.\n\nhttps://indico.mitp.uni-mainz.de/e
