Probing ultralight primordial black hole dark matter with XMM telescopes. (English) Zbl 07884682
Summary: Primordial black holes (PBHs), originating from the gravitational collapse of large overdensities in the early Universe, emerge as a compelling dark matter (DM) candidate across a broad mass range. Of particular interest are ultra-light PBHs with masses around \(10^{14}\) to \(10^{17}\,\mathrm{g}\), which are typically probed by searching their evaporation products. Using the soft X-ray signal measured by the XMM telescopes, we derive constraints on the fraction of PBHs dark matter with masses in the range \(10^{15}\)–\(10^{16}\,\mathrm{g}\). We find that observations exclude fraction \(f > 10^{-6}\) at 95% C.L. for mass \(M_{\mathrm{PBH}} = 10^{15}\,\mathrm{g}\).
