Primordial Black Hole Merger Rate in Ellipsoidal-Collapse Dark Matter Halo Models

Abstract

We have studied the merger rate of primordial black holes (PBHs) in the ellipsoidal-collapse model of halo to explain the dark matter abundance by the PBH merger estimated from the gravitational waves detections via the Advanced LIGO (aLIGO) detectors. We have indicated that the PBH merger rate within each halo for the ellipsoidal models is more significant than for the spherical models. We have specified that the PBH merger rate per unit time and per unit volume for the ellipsoidal-collapse halo models is about one order of magnitude higher than the corresponding spherical models. Moreover, we have calculated the evolution of the PBH total merger rate as a function of redshift. The results indicate that the evolution for the ellipsoidal halo models is more sensitive than spherical halo models, as expected from the models. Finally, we have presented a constraint on the PBH abundance within the context of ellipsoidal and spherical models. By comparing the results with the aLIGO mergers during the third observing run (O3), we have shown that the merger rate in the ellipsoidal-collapse halo models falls within the aLIGO window, while the same result is not valid for the spherical-collapse ones. Furthermore, we have compared the total merger rate of PBHs in terms of their fraction in the ellipsoidal-collapse halo models for several masses of PBHs. The results suggest that the total merger rate of PBHs changes inversely with their masses. We have also estimated the relation between the fraction of PBHs and their masses in the ellipsoidal-collapse halo model and have shown it for a narrow mass distribution of PBHs. The outcome shows that the constraint inferred from the PBH merger rate for the ellipsoidal-collapse halo models can be potentially stronger than the corresponding result obtained for the spherical-collapse ones.
