Primordial black hole constraints for extended mass functions
Open accessAbstract
We revisit the cosmological and astrophysical constraints on the fraction of the dark matter in primordial black holes (PBHs) with an extended mass function. We consider a variety of mass functions, all of which are described by three parameters: a characteristic mass and width and a dark matter fraction. Various observations then impose constraints on the dark matter fraction as a function of the first two parameters. We show how these constraints relate to those for a monochromatic mass function, demonstrating that they usually become more stringent in the extended case than the monochromatic one. Considering only the well-established bounds, and neglecting the ones that depend on additional astrophysical assumptions, we find that there are three mass windows, around $5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}16}{M}_{\ensuremath{\bigodot}}$, $2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}14}{M}_{\ensuremath{\bigodot}}$ and $25--100{M}_{\ensuremath{\bigodot}}$, where PBHs can constitute all the dark matter. However, if one includes all the bounds, PBHs can only constitute of order 10% of the dark matter.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
