3 The PBH Roadmap
Future experiments abound, ranging from approved projects to imminently enter the detailed design phase, to provide significantly enhanced constraints on PBH scenarios, including terrestrial laser interferometers (Einstein Telescope, Cosmic Explorer)[25], and space laser interferometers (LISA, DECIGO [26], TianQin and Taiji [27]), to atomic interferometers on the ground with demonstrators under construction and extensions planned to km scales (AION MAGIS, MAGIA, MIGA, ELGA, ZAIGA), as well as in space (AEDGE) [28], and designs for lunar interferometer/seismometer arrays (LGWA, GLOC)[29].
\ The science goals focus on bridging frequency gaps in the LIGO/VIRGO/KAGRA frequency range that has so far led to hundreds of detections of BH mergers in the (10 − 100)M⊙ range by going both to higher and lower frequencies. The new science that can be explored ranges from the masses and equation of state of neutron stars as well as multimessage signals from core collapse supernovae to kpc distances (kHz to Hz range) to SMBH and IMBH detections and BH inspiralling (Hz to mHz, and eventually µHz). One would ultimately approach the pulsar timing array sensitivities (NANOGrav, SKA) at nanohertz frequencies to enable exploration of first order very early universe phase transitions, and presence of loop decays in a network of cosmic strings [30].
\ We next address various “smoking-gun” signatures that may identify PBHs, notably including high redshift mergers and sub-solar mass PBHs.
