Constraining the Cosmological Density of Compact Objects with the Long-Term Variability of Quasars

• By comparing the results from numerical microlensing simulations to the observed long-term variability of quasars, strong upper limits on the cosmological density of compact objects in the $10^{-4}\ M_\odot$--$1 \ M_\odot$ range may in principle be impose
