NANOGrav results and LIGO-Virgo primordial black holes in axion-like curvaton model

We discuss a possible connection between the recent NANOGrav results and the primordial black holes (PBHs) for the LIGO-Virgo events. In particular, we focus on the axionlike curvaton model, which provides a sizable amount of PBHs and gravitational waves (GWs) induced by scalar perturbations around the NANOGrav frequency range. The inevitable non-Gaussianity of this model suppresses the induced GWs associated with PBHs for the LIGO-Virgo events to be compatible with the NANOGrav results. We show that the axionlike curvaton model can account for PBHs for the LIGO-Virgo events and the NANOGrav results simultaneously.
