On Mass Spectra of Primordial Black Holes

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Evidence for the primordial black holes (PBH) presence in the early Universe renews permanently. New limits on their mass spectrum challenge existing models of PBH formation.

Disentangling the potential dark matter origin of LIGO's black holes

open access: yes, 2017
The nature of dark matter remains one of the biggest open questions in physics. Intriguingly, it has been suggested that dark matter may be explained by another recently observed phenomenon: the detection of gravitational waves by LIGO.

Constraints on Cosmic Strings due to Black Holes Formed from Collapsed Cosmic String Loops [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The cosmological features of primordial black holes formed from collapsed cosmic string loops are studied. Observational restrictions on a population of primordial black holes are used to restrict $f$, the fraction of cosmic string loops which collapse ...

Primordial black hole evolution in two-fluid cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Several processes in the early universe might lead to the formation of primordial black holes with different masses. These black holes would interact with the cosmic plasma through accretion and emission processes.

GUT-Scale Primordial Black Holes: Consequences and Constraints

open access: yes, 2009
A population of very light primordial black holes which evaporate before nucleosynthesis begins is unconstrained unless the decaying black holes leave stable relics.

Primordial black holes from cosmic necklaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Cosmic necklaces are hybrid topological defects consisting of monopoles and strings. We argue that primordial black holes(PBHs) may have formed from loops of the necklaces, if there exist stable winding states, such as coils and cycloops.

Golden weapons and golden fetters: From the gold standard to the new geopolitics

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the historical relationship between monetary regimes, security concerns, and geopolitical tensions, particularly focusing on the role of gold. Throughout history, monetary systems have been deeply intertwined with international state systems and security provisions.

Effect of Vacuum Energy on Evolution of Primordial Black Holes in Einstein Gravity

open access: yes, 2011
We study the evolution of primordail black holes by considering present universe is no more matter dominated rather vacuum energy dominated. We also consider the accretion of radiation, matter and vacuum energy during respective dominance period. In this

Moduli constraints on primordial black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The amount of late decaying massive particles (e.g., gravitinos, moduli) produced in the evaporation of primordial black holes (PBHs) of mass $\Mbh\la10^9 $g is calculated.

Spinning primordial black holes from first order phase transition

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We conduct a novel study to obtain the initial spin of the primordial black holes created during a first-order phase transition due to delayed false vacuum decay.
