What further investigation can be done using the public software available in GWOSC?

The detection of the GW230529 gravitational wave event has the potential to be a primordial black hole. What further research investigation can be done to confirm the nature of the event?

Also, can we use componential code to study the black hole? Such as BlackHawk v2.0

@salanl Thank you for your question!

One way to investigate is to study other possible formation scenarios for the black holes in the merger. For example, work on simulating supernovas and fall back accretion could help us understand if a supernova could form an event of this size. Another possibility is to search in GW’s for other possible primordial black holes, to see if there is a population of black holes around this size. As LIGO becomes more sensitive, or with next generation instruments, we can hope to better map out this region of parameter space.
