Gravitational Waves from Primordial Black Hole Dark Matter Spikes
The origin of the binary black hole mergers observed by LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA remains an open question. We calculate the merger rate from primordial black holes (PBHs) within the density spike around supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the centers of galaxies. We show that the merger rate within the spik...
