Memory burden effect in black holes and solitons: Implications for PBH

G Dvali, JS Valbuena-Bermúdez, M Zantedeschi - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
The essence of the memory burden effect is that a load of information carried by a system
stabilizes it. This universal effect is especially prominent in systems with a high capacity of …

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 …

More on black holes perceiving the dark dimension

LA Anchordoqui, I Antoniadis, D Lüst - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
In the last two years, the dark dimension scenario has emerged as focal point of many
research interests. In particular, it functions as a stepping stone to address the cosmological …

The Future of Primordial Black Holes: Open Questions and Roadmap

A Riotto, J Silk - arXiv preprint arXiv:2403.02907, 2024 - arxiv.org
We discuss some of the the open questions and the roadmap in the physics of primordial
black holes. Black holes are the only dark matter candidate that is known to actually exit …

Impact of a plasma on the relaxation of black holes

E Cannizzaro, TFM Spieksma, V Cardoso, T Ikeda - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
Our Universe is permeated with interstellar plasma, which prevents propagation of low-
frequency electromagnetic waves. Here, we show that two dramatic consequences arise out …

Through the looking glass into the dark dimension: Searching for bulk black hole dark matter with microlensing of X-ray pulsars

LA Anchordoqui, I Antoniadis, D Lüst… - Physics of the Dark …, 2024 - Elsevier
Primordial black holes (PBHs) hidden in the incredible bulk of the dark dimension could
escape constraints from non-observation of their Hawking radiation. Since these five …

Dark dimension, the swampland, and the dark matter fraction composed of primordial near-extremal black holes

LA Anchordoqui, I Antoniadis, D Lüst - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
In a recent publication we studied the decay rate of primordial black holes perceiving the
dark dimension, an innovative five-dimensional (5D) scenario that has a compact space with …

Primordial black holes with QCD color charge

E Alonso-Monsalve, DI Kaiser - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We describe a realistic mechanism whereby black holes with significant QCD color charge
could have formed during the early Universe. Primordial black holes (PBHs) could make up …

Stochastic gravitational-wave background at 3G detectors as a smoking gun for microscopic dark matter relics

G Franciolini, P Pani - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Microscopic horizonless relics could form in the early universe either directly through
gravitational collapse or as stable remnants of the Hawking evaporation of primordial black …

The timescales of quantum breaking

M Michel, S Zell - Fortschritte der Physik, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Due to the inevitable existence of quantum effects, a classical description generically breaks
down after a finite quantum break‐time tq t_q. We aim to find criteria for determining tq t_q …
