Primordial black holes might comprise a significant fraction of the dark matter in the Universe and be responsible for the gravitational wave signals from black hole mergers observed by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration. The spatial clustering of primordial black holes might affect their merger rates and have a significant impact on the constraints on their masses and abundances. We provide some analytical treatment of the primordial black hole spatial clustering evolution, compare our results with some of the existing N-body numerical simulations and discuss the implications for the black hole merger rates. If primordial black holes contribute to a small fraction of the dark matter, primordial black hole clustering is not relevant. On the other hand, for a large contribution to the dark matter, we argue that the clustering may increase the late time Universe merger rate to a level compatible with the LIGO/Virgo detection rate. As for the early Universe merger rate of black hole binaries formed at primordial epochs, clustering alleviates the LIGO/Virgo constraints, but does not evade them.

Evolution of a black hole cluster in full general relativity
A 25-black-hole cluster evolved in full general relativity undergoes runaway hierarchical merging into a single roughly 22m0 black hole, ejects one member at 0.51c, and produces a gravitational-wave signal with an ecc...

The cosmic history of Primordial Black Hole accretion and its uncertainties
Accounting for radiative feedback and formation-time effects, accretion grows primordial black holes by at most a few percent in the radiation era and negligibly in the baryonic Park-Ricotti model, while the Bondi mod...

Assessing the Impact of Instrumental Requirements on the Scientific Performance of the Einstein Telescope
Degrading the Einstein Telescope's sensitivity in specific frequency bands hurts different science goals in predictable ways, but the mission remains scientifically strong even in the worst modelled cases.

Do Primordial Black Hole Clusters Survive the Galaxy? Collisional Disruption and Microlensing Implications
Cluster-cluster collisions strip 50–96% of 10^6–10^7 M⊙ PBH cluster mass by z=0, so microlensing sightlines to the Magellanic Clouds are ~49–92% smooth.

Probing Primordial Black Hole Mergers in Clusters with Pulsar Timing Data
Bayesian analysis of IPTA DR2 shows scalar-induced gravitational waves dominate and PBH merger backgrounds are strongly disfavored relative to an astrophysical SMBHB explanation.

Closing the Mass Window for Stupendously Large Black Holes
Primordial black holes heavier than about 10^11 solar masses generate isocurvature perturbations that violate Planck CMB and BAO bounds, ruling them out as a significant dark matter component.

A fast deep-learning approach to probing primordial black hole populations in gravitational wave events
A neural network maps single-event gravitational-wave posterior samples to joint PBH population posteriors in about one second on a GPU, with calibration matching MCMC on simulated catalogs.

January Food Benchmark (JFB): A Public Benchmark Dataset and Evaluation Suite for Multimodal Food Analysis
The abstract promises a food-image benchmark and a winning model, but the manuscript pages contain only a different paper on primordial black holes, leaving every benchmark claim unsubstantiated.
