<< ️Observation of gamma rays from an exploding black hole would provide strong evidence for primordial black holes, the first direct evidence of Hawking radiation, and definitive information on the particles present in nature. However, indirect constraints suggest that direct observation of an exploding Schwarzschild black hole at current or upcoming gamma ray observatories is implausible. >>
<< ️(AA) introduce a dark-QED (Quantum Electrodynamics) toy model consisting of a dark photon and a heavy dark electron. In this scenario a population of light primordial black holes charged under the dark 𝑢(1) symmetry can become quasiextremal, so they survive much longer than if they were uncharged, before discharging and exhibiting a Schwarzschild-like final explosion. (They) show that the answer is “yes,” in this scenario the probability of observing an exploding black hole over the next 10 years could potentially be over 90%. >>
