New research suggests that primordial black holes created during the Big Bang could have played a major role in forming the ...

Kenadie Jourdin-Bromley, 12, poses at a park with little brother Tyran, 10. She has primordial dwarfism - a condition causing underdevelopment of limbs, which affects about 100 people worldwide ...

"Primordial black holes should form during the first few seconds after the Big Bang. If they exist, they have some advantages over astrophysical black holes," Regan said.

Massive primordial black holes could be the long sought answer. Such large, heavy objects might also have served as the anchors around which early galaxies coalesced, another conundrum that has ...

Instead, they say that if primordial black holes exist and make up most of dark matter, "then one must travel through the inner solar system every one to 10 years." ...

Kenadie Jourdin-Bromley is a medical wonder, a tiny girl living in a big world. She stands 33 inches tall and weighs just 17 pounds -- roughly the size of a 3-year-old. But Kenadie is 7 years old.

A primordial black hole in the solar system (illustrated) could make its presence known by altering the orbits of planets. Benjamin V. Lehmann, with use of SpaceEngine@Cosmographic Software LLC ...

However, the case for primordial black holes isn’t yet complete. “Our results suggest the tantalizing possibility that LIGO/Virgo may have already detected black holes formed after inflation ...

Primordial black holes are thought to have formed during the Big Bang and have generally lower masses than their colossal counterparts, ranging from fractions of a pound to thousands of solar ...

That is, a hypothetical primordial black hole (PBH) with a horizon size no larger than a grapefruit, and with a mass 5 to 10 times that of Earth. How might it be detected?
