Waves from the centre: probing PBH and other macroscopic dark matter with LISA

Abstract A significant fraction of cosmological dark matter can be formed by very dense macroscopic objects, for example primordial black holes. Gravitational waves offer a promising way to probe these kinds of dark-matter candidates, in a parameter space region that is relatively untested by electr...
