Recent gamma-ray and cosmic-ray observations have put strong constraints on the amount of primordial black holes (PBHs) in our universe. In this article, we use the archival radio data of the inner Galactic Centre to constrain the PBH to dark matter ratio for three different PBH mass distributions including monochromatic, log-normal and power-law. We show that the amount of PBHs only constitutes a very minor component of dark matter at the Galactic Centre for a large parameter space.

In this contribution, we summarize our results concerning the observational constraints on the electric charge associated with the Galactic centre black hole - Sgr A*. According to the no-hair theorem, every astrophysical black hole, including superm
assive black holes, is characterized by at most three classical, externally observable parameters - mass, spin, and the electric charge. While the mass and the spin have routinely been measured by several methods, the electric charge has usually been neglected, based on the arguments of efficient discharge in astrophysical plasmas. From a theoretical point of view, the black hole can attain charge due to the mass imbalance between protons and electrons in fully ionized plasmas, which yields about $sim 10^8,{rm C}$ for Sgr A*. The second, induction mechanism concerns rotating Kerr black holes embedded in an external magnetic field, which leads to electric field generation due to the twisting of magnetic field lines. This electric field can be associated with the induced Wald charge, for which we calculate the upper limit of $sim 10^{15},{rm C}$ for Sgr A*. Although the maximum theoretical limit of $sim 10^{15},{rm C}$ is still 12 orders of magnitude smaller than the extremal charge of Sgr A*, we analyse a few astrophysical consequences of having a black hole with a small charge in the Galactic centre. Two most prominent ones are the effect on the X-ray bremsstrahlung profile and the effect on the position of the innermost stable circular orbit.
We simulate the star cluster, made of stars in the main sequence and different black hole (BH) remnants, around SgrA* at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Tracking stellar evolution, we find the BH remnant masses and construct the BH mass function.
We sample 4 BH species and consider the impact of the mass-function in the dynamical evolution of system. Starting from an initial 6 dimensional family of parameters and using an MCMC approach, we find the best fits to various parameters of model by directly comparing the results of the simulations after $t = 10.5$ Gyrs with current observations of the stellar surface density, stellar mass profile and the mass of SgrA*. Using these parameters, we study the dynamical evolution of system in detail. We also explore the mass-growth of SgrA* due to tidally disrupted stars and swallowed BHs. We show that the consumed mass is dominated for the BH component with larger initial normalization as given by the BH mass-function. Assuming that about 10% of the tidally disrupted stars contribute in the growth of SgrA* mass, stars make up the second dominant effect in enhancing the mass of SgrA*. We consider the detectability of the GW signal from inspiralling stellar mass BHs around SgrA* with LISA. Computing the fraction of the lifetime of every BH species in the LISA band, with signal to noise ratio $gtrsim 8$, to their entire lifetime, and rescaling this number with the total number of BHs in the system, we find that the total expected rate of inspirals per Milky-Way sized galaxy per year is $10^{-5}$. Quite interestingly, the rate is dominated for the BH component with larger initial normalization as dictated by the BH mass-function. We interpret it as the second signature of the BH mass-function.
An exploding primordial black-hole (PBH) may produce a single pulse of electromagnetic radiation detectable at the low-frequency end of the radio spectrum. Furthermore, a radio transient from an exploding PBH could be a signature of an extra spatial
dimension. We describe here an approach for searching for PBH explosions using a low-frequency radio antenna array, and as a practical example, the results of a such a search using the Eight-meter-wavelength Transient Array (ETA). No compelling astrophysical signal was detected in $approx 4$ hours of data implying an observational upper limit on the rate of exploding PBHs is $4.2 times 10^{-7} ,rm{pc}^{-3},rm{yr}^{-1}$ for an exploding PBH with a fireball Lorentz factor of $10^{4.5}$ for the standard scenario of Page and Hawking. This rate limit is the strongest constraint yet set for PBH explosions with this fireball Lorentz factor. Observations ($sim300$ hours) using the Arecibo Observatory were used to set a stronger constraint on the rate of PBH explosions for a fireball Lorentz factor of $10^{4.6}$ but the limit set by those observations for the fireball Lorentz factor considered here are less stringent by more than an order of magnitude. The limits considered here are applicable to exploding PBHs in the halo of the Galaxy. These observations also imply an upper limit of $2.0 times 10^{-4} ,rm{pc}^{-3},rm{yr}^{-1}$ on the rate of PBH explosions in the context of certain extra dimension models as described by Kavic et al. This rate limit is for a fireball Lorentz factor of $10^{4.3}$ which corresponds to an extra dimension compactification scale of $3.0 times 10^{-18}$m.
Recent studies of gamma-ray, cosmic-ray and radio data put stringent constraints on the fraction of primordial black holes (PBHs) in our universe. In this article, we propose a new indirect method in using the X-ray luminosity data of cool-core clust
ers to constrain the evaporating PBH fraction for the monochromatic, log-normal and power-law mass distributions. The present results show that the amount of evaporating PBHs only constitutes a minor component of dark matter for a large parameter space. The constraints are consistent with and close to that obtained from other cosmic-ray and multi-wavelength observations.
Through high-precision radio timing observations, we show that five recycled pulsars in the direction of the Galactic Centre (GC) have anomalous spin period time derivative ($dot P$) measurements -- PSRs J1748$-$3009, J1753$-$2819, J1757$-$2745, and
J1804$-$2858 show negative values of $dot P$ and PSR J1801$-$3210 is found to have an exceptionally small value of $dot P$. We attribute these observed $dot P$ measurements to acceleration of these pulsars along their lines-of-sight (LOSs) due to the Galactic gravitational field. Using models of the Galactic mass distribution and pulsar velocities, we constrain the distances to these pulsars, placing them on the far-side of the Galaxy, providing the first accurate distance measurements to pulsars located in this region and allowing us to consider the electron density along these LOSs. We find the new electron density model YMW16 to be more consistent with these observations than the previous model NE2001. The LOS dynamics further constrain the model-dependent intrinsic $dot P$ values for these pulsars and they are consistent with measurements for other known pulsars. In the future, the independent distance measurements to these and other pulsars near the GC would allow us to constrain the Galactic gravitational potential more accurately.
