Primordial black hole constraints with Hawking radiation—A review

J Auffinger - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2023 - Elsevier
Primordial black holes are under intense scrutiny since the detection of gravitational waves
from mergers of Solar-mass black holes in 2015. More recently, the development of …

Gravitational waves induced from primordial black hole fluctuations: the effect of an extended mass function

T Papanikolaou - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
The gravitational potential of initially Poisson distributed primordial black holes (PBH) can
induce a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) at second order in cosmological …

Gravitational wave signatures of no-scale supergravity in NANOGrav and beyond

S Basilakos, DV Nanopoulos, T Papanikolaou… - Physics Letters B, 2024 - Elsevier
In this Letter, we derive for the first time a characteristic three-peaked GW signal within the
framework of no-scale Supergravity, being the low-energy limit of Superstring theory. We …

Ultralow mass primordial black holes in the early Universe can explain the pulsar timing array signal

N Bhaumik, RK Jain, M Lewicki - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Pulsar timing array collaborations have recently announced the discovery of a stochastic
gravitational wave (GW) background at nanohertz frequencies. We analyze the GW signals …

Baryogenesis, primordial black holes and MHz–GHz gravitational waves

TC Gehrman, BSE Haghi, K Sinha… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Gravitational waves (GWs) in the MHz–GHz frequency range are motivated by a host of early
Universe phenomena such as oscillons, preheating, and cosmic strings. We point out that …

Probing modified Hawking evaporation with gravitational waves from the primordial black hole dominated universe

S Balaji, G Domènech, G Franciolini… - … of Cosmology and …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
It has been recently proposed that Hawking evaporation might slow down after a black hole
has lost about half of its mass. Such an effect, called" memory burden", is parameterized as …

Gravitational wave pathway to testable leptogenesis

A Dasgupta, PSB Dev, A Ghoshal, A Mazumdar - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We analyze the classically scale-invariant BL model in the context of resonant leptogenesis
with the recently proposed mass-gain mechanism. The BL symmetry breaking in this …

The primordial black holes that disappeared: connections to dark matter and MHz-GHz gravitational Waves

TC Gehrman, BSE Haghi, K Sinha… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
In the post-LIGO era, there has been a lot of focus on primordial black holes (PBHs) heavier
than∼ 10 15 g as potential dark matter (DM) candidates. We point out that the branch of the …
