On Thursday 22th, we have the pleasure to host the Belgian
Gravitational Waves meeting. It starts at 2pm, seminar room
E349. Our guest speaker is Chris Belczynski and our local
speaker is Sébastien Clesse.

We are happy to announce the opening of a post-doctoral position
in Gravitational Wave Cosmology at CURL (Cosmology, Universe and
Relativity at Louvain), Louvain University (Belgium), starting fall
2020.

The known thermal history of the Universe is expected to shape the
mass function of primordial black
holes. Sébastien, Bernard
Carr, Juan
García-Bellido and
Florian Kühnel shed a
new light on a series of unexplained cosmic conundra in Ref.[1].

Primordial black holes could not only explain the dark matter, but
also the origin of the ordinary matter in the
Universe. Sébastien, Bernard
Carr and Juan
García-Bellido propose
a new baryogenesis scenario in Refs.[2]
and [2].

We have recently made public a rather technical paper in which we
explicitly and unambiguously calculate the cosmic string loop number
density distribution in our universe coming from various motivated
loop production functions. Such a density distribution crucially
determines the spectrum of their emitted gravitational waves, a
smooking gun for their potential discovery.
