Description
Since the detection by Advanced LIGO/VIRO of gravitational waves emitted by black holes with masses beyond most expectations, primordial black holes (PBH) have seen a revival of interest as a possible Dark Matter candidate, supported by the coincidence between inferred merging rates by LIGO and the expected rates for PBH abundances comparable to the Dark Matter. I will review the recent and less recent observations that constrain or support the existence of Primordial Black Holes in the mass range [1-100] Msun, as well as the future observational perspectives.
