Description
The physics of Primordial Black Holes has garnered significant interest in recent years, largely due to the numerous detections of gravitational
waves originating from BH binary mergers and the hypothesis that some of
these may be of primordial origin.
We show that in realistic models where primordial black holes are formed due to the collapse of sizeable inflationary perturbations, their initial spatial clustering beyond Poisson distribution does not play any role in the binary mergers, including sub-solar primordial black holes, responsible for the gravitational waves detectable by LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA.
