Many early universe theories predict the creation of Primordial Black Holes (PBHs). PBHs could have masses ranging from the Planck mass to 10^5 solar masses or higher depending on the size of the universe at formation. A Black Hole (BH) has a Hawking temperature which is inversely proportional to its mass. Hence a sufficiently small BH will quasi-thermally radiate particles at an ever-increasing rate as emission lowers its mass and raises its temperature. The final moments of this evaporation phase should be explosive and its description is dependent on the particle physics model. In this work we investigate the final few seconds of BH evaporation, using the Standard Model and incorporating the most recent Large Hadron Collider (LHC) results, and provide a new parameterization for the instantaneous emission spectrum. We calculate for the first time energy-dependent PBH burst light curves in the GeV/TeV energy range. Moreover, we explore PBH burst search methods and potential observational PBH burst signatures. We have found a unique signature in the PBH burst light curves that may be detectable by GeV/TeV gamma-ray observatories such as the High Altitude Water Cerenkov (HAWC) observatory. The implications of beyond the Standard Model theories on the PBH burst observational characteristics are also discussed, including potential sensitivity of the instantaneous photon detection rate to a squark threshold in the 5 -10 TeV range.

s a temperature which is inversely proportional to its mass. Hence a sufficiently small BH will thermodynamically radiate particles at an ever-increasing rate, continually decreasing its mass and raising its temperature. The final moments of this evaporation phase should be explosive. In this work, we investigate the final few seconds of the BH burst using the Standard Model of particle physics and calculate the energy dependent burst time profiles in the GeV/TeV range. We use the HAWC (High Altitude Water Cherenkov) observatory as a case study and calculate PBH burst light curves which would be observed by HAWC.
These notes resulted from a series of lectures at the IAC winter school. They are designed to help students, especially those just starting in subject, to get hold of the fundamental tools used to study accretion powered sources. As such, the referen
ces give a place to start reading, rather than representing a complete survey of work done in the field. I outline Compton scattering and blackbody radiation as the two predominant radiation mechanisms for accreting black holes, producing the hard X-ray tail and disc spectral components, respectively. The interaction of this radiation with matter can result in photo-electric absorption and/or reflection. While the basic processes can be found in any textbook, here I focus on how these can be used as a toolkit to interpret the spectra and variability of black hole binaries (hereafter BHB) and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). I also discuss how to use these to physically interpret real data using the publicly available XSPEC spectral fitting package (Arnaud et al 1996), and how this has led to current models (and controversies) of the accretion flow in both BHB and AGN.
Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are candidates for dark matter as well as ultra-high energy cosmic rays. PBHs are speculated to exist over a large range of masses, from below $10^{15}$ g to $10^3$ M$_odot$. Here we search for PBHs with an initial mass
of $sim 10^{15}$ g. Hawking radiation by black holes of this initial mass predicts their evaporation at present time. PBHs are expected to produce copious amounts of high-energy neutrinos and gamma rays right before evaporating. Gamma-ray instruments such as Fermi, VERITAS, HAWC, HESS, and Milagro have conducted searches for evaporating PBHs during their last second to a year of existence. They are able to detect bursts from PBHs in a range of $10^{-3}$ to $0.1$ pc. We present sensitivity to PBH evaporation using one year of neutrino data by IceCube. In these proceedings, we detail the changes to adapt IceCubes standard neutrino flare search, aka time-dependent point source search, into one that is appropriate for evaporating BHs. These proceedings serve as proof of concept for a first-ever search for evaporating PBHs using neutrinos that can use 10 years of IceCube data.
Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are of interest in many cosmological contexts. PBHs lighter than about 1012 kg are predicted to be directly detectable by their Hawking radiation. This radiation should produce both a diffuse extragalactic gamma-ray back
ground from the cosmologically-averaged distribution of PBHs and gamma-ray burst signals from individual light black holes. The Fermi, Milagro, Veritas, HESS and HAWC observatories, in combination with new burst recognition methodologies, offer the greatest sensitivity for the detection of such black holes or placing limits on their existence.
Primordial black holes in the mass range of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors can comprise a significant fraction of the dark matter. Mass and spin measurements from coalescences can be used to distinguish between an astrophysical or a primor
dial origin of the binary black holes. In standard scenarios the spin of primordial black holes is very small at formation. However, the mass and spin can evolve through the cosmic history due to accretion. We show that the mass and spin of primordial black holes are correlated in a redshift-dependent fashion, in particular primordial black holes with masses below ${cal O}(30)M_odot$ are likely non-spinning at any redshift, whereas heavier black holes can be nearly extremal up to redshift $zsim10$. The dependence of the mass and spin distributions on the redshift can be probed with future detectors such as the Einstein Telescope. The mass and spin evolution affect the gravitational waveform parameters, in particular the distribution of the final mass and spin of the merger remnant, and that of the effective spin of the binary. We argue that, compared to the astrophysical-formation scenario, a primordial origin of black hole binaries might better explain the spin distribution of merger events detected by LIGO-Virgo, in which the effective spin parameter of the binary is compatible to zero except possibly for few high-mass events. Upcoming results from LIGO-Virgo third observation run might reinforce or weaken these predictions.
