abstract
Very recently, it was suggested that combining the Swampland program with the smallness of the dark energy and confronting these ideas to experiment lead to the prediction of the existence of a single extra-dimension (dubbed the dark dimension) with characteristic length-scale in the micron range. We show that the rate of Hawking radiation slows down for black holes perceiving the dark dimension and discuss the impact of our findings in assessing the dark matter fraction that could be composed of primordial black holes. We demonstrate that for a species scale of ${\cal O}(10^{10}~{\rm GeV})$, an all-dark-matter interpretation in terms of primordial black holes should be feasible for masses in the range $10^{14} \leq M_{BH}/{\rm g}\leq 10^{21}$. This range is extended compared to that in the 4D theory by 3 orders of magnitude in the low mass region. We also show that PBHs with $M_{\rm BH} \sim 10^{12}~{\rm g}$ could potentially explain the well-known Galactic 511 keV gamma-ray line if they make up a tiny fraction of the total dark matter density.

Searching for the $N$-naturalness tower of neutrinos
Neutrino data rule out the Majorana realization of N-naturalness with up to 10^4 sectors and fine-tuning r ≥ 0.1, including the no-fine-tuning GUT benchmark.

Evolving Dark Sector and the Dark Dimension Scenario
A two-parameter fading dark sector model, with exponential dark energy potential and exponential dark matter mass, matches DESI DR2 plus supernova data and naturally yields apparent w<-1 phantom behavior.

Two Micron-Size Dark Dimensions
Two micron-size dark dimensions are consistent with observations only if the compact space has no isometries and the normalcy temperature is fine-tuned to about 2 MeV.

QCD Axion Dark Matter in the Dark Dimension
A QCD axion with decay constant around 1e9 to 1e10 GeV, as predicted in the dark dimension scenario, can supply all dark matter if an ALP of mass about 1e-5 eV and decay constant about 1e11 GeV resonantly converts into it.
