Abstract
- Very recently Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) collaborations have independently reported the evidence for a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB), which can unveil the formation of primordial seeds of inhomogeneities in the early universe. With the SGWB parameters inferred from PTAs data, we can make a prediction of the Primordial Black Hole (PBH) clusters from the domain walls of axion-like particles (ALPs). These primordial seeds can naturally provide a solution to the early Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) formation indicated by James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Besides, the mass of ALP is also constrained, $m_a \sim 10^{-15}-10^{-14}$ eV, within the reach of upcoming cavity experiments.<br />Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures
