Spin of Primordial Black Holes
read the original abstract
Primordial black holes, formed from rare peaks in the primordial fluctuations $\zeta$, are non-rotating at zeroth order in $\zeta_{\rm rms}$. We show that the spin also vanishes at first order in $\zeta_{\rm rms}$, suggesting the dimensionless spin parameter $a_{\rm rms} \sim \zeta_{\rm rms}^2$. We identify one quadratic contribution to the spin by calculating (and extrapolating to the formation time) the torque on a black hole due to ambient acoustic waves. For a reasonable density of primordial black holes this implies a percent level spin parameter.

Angular momentum of vacuum bubbles in a first-order phase transition
Computes the dimensionless spin parameter s = J/(G_N M^2) of false vacuum bubbles from density and velocity perturbations in FOPTs, yielding values from O(10^{-5}) to O(10) and a scaling relation with FOPT timescale, ...

String Axiverse Enhancement of Superradiant Dark Matter Production
O(100–10^5) light string axions enhance PBH spin-up during Hawking evaporation, boosting superradiant dark-matter cloud efficiency and expanding the micro-boson-star parameter space while contributing negligibly to ΔN_eff.

The Gravitational Spectral Radio Forest: A Signature of Primordial Black Holes
Asteroid-mass primordial black holes induce a Riemann tidal splitting of the 2P_{3/2} hydrogen state, turning the 9.9 GHz line into a ~2 GHz bandwidth gravitational spectral radio forest in H II regions with accretion...

High-energy neutrino constraints on primordial black holes as dark matter
High-energy neutrino telescopes constrain sub-asteroid mass primordial black holes with extended mass functions as dark matter, yielding limits slightly weaker than but independent of gamma-ray bounds.

Revisiting PBH accretion, evaporation and their cosmological consequences
Relativistic accretion onto Kerr primordial black holes gives roughly 4.5x mass growth and fast spin-down, strengthening BBN bounds, lowering the survival mass to ~2.7e14 g, and erasing the high-frequency stochastic g...

GW231123: A Possible Primordial Black Hole Origin
GW231123's masses and high spins are consistent with primordial black holes that accreted mass and angular momentum in the early universe within the standard PBH framework.

Refining primordial black hole dark matter constraints with dust heating: the role of spin and halo profile dependence
Dust-heating constraints on PBH dark matter tighten to f_PBH ≈ 10^-4 when PBH spin is included, with the strongest limits for the Isothermal halo profile and weakest for Burkert.

String Axiverse Enhancement of Superradiant Dark Matter Production
O(100-10^5) string axions enhance PBH superradiance efficiency via increased spin, expanding viable mass-spin regions for micro-boson star dark matter while too many axions cause overly rapid evaporation.
