SUMMARY:Constraining Intermediate Mass Black Holes with Cosmological Micro
 lensing - Katie Mack (IoA)

CONTACT:Ben Davies
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss how microlensing from line-of-sight galaxies in
  multiply imaged quasars can be used to constrain the mass fraction in mas
 sive compact objects. The statistics of microlensing events\, which have b
 een used to determine the mass fraction in smoothly distributed dark matte
 r versus small compact objects\, can also place limits on populations of i
 ntermediate-mass black holes. This method can be used to derive a new cons
 traint on massive primordial black holes and may also have implications fo
 r studies of black hole merger histories.
