Scientists are searching for elusive intermediate-mass black holes using fast radio bursts as cosmic probes. By analyzing subtle gravitational lensing effects in data from CHIME, researchers have identified signals consistent with black holes hundreds to thousands of times the Sun's mass.
If confirmed as primordial black holes, these mysterious objects could account for a significant fraction of the universe's dark matter, offering new clues to one of cosmology's greatest mysteries.
