Primordial black holes in the dark ages

If you have a question about this talk, please contact David Mulryne .

Future observations promise to unveil cosmic history during the “dark ages,” between roughly z=30 and 800. Observations of 21cm radiation are especially suited to detecting the ionisation history and thermal properties of the intergalactic medium (IGM) during this period. I will describe how primordial black holds (PBHs) would affect the IGM during the dark ages, which can lead to better constraints on potential PBH populations. I will also explain some unique PBH observational signatures that can distinguish them from other sources of IGM energy injection, such as decaying dark matter.
