Identifying Spin Properties of Evaporating Black Holes through Asymmetric Neutrino and Photon Emission
arXiv:2307.14408 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.108.083014
Abstract
Kerr black holes radiate neutrinos in an asymmetric pattern, preferentially in the lower hemisphere relative to the black hole's rotation axis, while antineutrinos are predominantly produced in the upper hemisphere. Leveraging this asymmetric emission, we explore the potential of high-energy, TeV, neutrino and antineutrino detection to reveal crucial characteristics of an evaporating primordial black hole at the time of its burst when observed near Earth. We improve upon previous calculations by carefully accounting for the non-isotropic particle emission, as Earth occupies a privileged angle relative to the black hole's rotation axis. Additionally, we investigate the angular dependence of primary and secondary photon spectra and assess the evaporating black hole's time evolution during the final explosive stages of its lifetime. Since photon events outnumber neutrinos by about three orders of magnitude, we find that a neutrino measurement can aid in identifying the initial angular momentum and the black hole hemisphere facing Earth only for evaporating black holes within our solar system, at distances pc, and observed during the final 100 s of their lifetime.
