Braneworld effects cause primordial black holes to accrete matter far more efficiently in the early universe, producing present-day masses up to 10^5 times larger than previous estimates for the smallest allowed fundamental Planck scale.

abstract
We consider the evolution of sub-horizon-sized black holes which are formed during the high energy phase of the braneworld scenario. These black holes are long-lived due to modified evaporation and accretion of radiation during the radiation dominated era. We argue that an initial mass difference between any two neighbouring black holes is always amplified because of their exchange of energy with the surrounding radiation. We present a scheme of binary formation based on mass differences suggesting that such a scenario could lead to binaries with observable signatures.

Cosmological accretion onto braneworld black holes: a relativistic treatment
Braneworld effects cause primordial black holes to accrete matter far more efficiently in the early universe, producing present-day masses up to 10^5 times larger than previous estimates for the smallest allowed fundamental Planck scale.
