Exploring Quantum Fluctuations in the Universe
The chapter delves into quantum fluctuations in the curvature of space-time, focusing on their wavelength and amplitude constraints observed in the cosmic microwave background. It discusses the correlation between fluctuations in the early universe, inflation, and the formation of large-scale structures, emphasizing the potential link between primordial black holes and dark matter. The chapter also explores the detection challenges of primordial black holes, the role of gravitational wave detectors, and the potential insights from the square kilometer array for confirming gravitational wave findings.
