Baryogenesis from Exploding Primordial Black Holes
Alexandra P. Klipfel, Miguel Vanvlasselaer, Sokratis Trifinopoulos +1
Exploding primordial black holes can source baryon asymmetry soon after the electroweak phase transition, as high-energy Hawking radiation drives ultrarelativistic shocks in the su…
