abstract

Data collected by the H.E.S.S. array between 2004 and 2012 have been used to search for photon bursts from primordial black hole explosions. Bursts were searched for in a 30 second time-window. The duration of the search window has been optimized to increase the burst signal while keeping the statistical background low. No evidence for a burst signal was found. Preliminary upper limits on the local rate of PBH explosions of $1.4\times 10^{4} {pc}^{-3} {yr}^{-1}$ have been obtained, which improve previously published limits by almost an order of magnitude

  1. VERITAS Observations of Fast Radio Bursts

    astro-ph.HE 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    VERITAS found no gamma-ray or optical emission from 15 contemporaneous bursts of FRB 121102 or from the second repeater FRB 180814.J0422+73, setting new 95% upper limits.

  2. Neutrinos from Primordial Black Hole Evaporation

    astro-ph.HE 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The adapted IceCube search is most sensitive to the final 10^3 seconds of PBH evaporation, with a local burst rate sensitivity of 3.8 million per cubic parsec per year.

  3. Constraining the evaporation rate of primordial black holes using archival data from VERITAS

    astro-ph.HE 2019-09 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    A VERITAS work-in-progress report projects that 2,100 hours of archival data will tighten the primordial black hole evaporation rate-density upper limit by about a factor of two, down to roughly 10^4 pc^-3 yr^-1.
