Electron scattering of light new particles from evaporating primordial black holes
arXiv:2203.17093 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.105.103024
Abstract
Primordial black holes are a possible component of dark matter, and a most promising way of investigating them is through the product of their Hawking evaporation. As a result of this process, any species lighter than the Hawking temperature is emitted, including possible new particles beyond the Standard Model. These can then be detected in lab-based experiments via their interaction with the Standard Model particles. In a previous work, we have first proposed and studied this scenario in the presence of an interaction between the light new species and nucleons. Here we extend this discussion to include the case of interaction with electrons. We show that the simultaneous presence of primordial black holes and species lighter than about MeV can be constrained by the measurements of direct detection experiments, such as XENON1T, and water Cherenkov neutrino detectors, such as Super-Kamiokande. Our results provide a complementary and alternative way of investigation with respect to cosmological and collider searches.
