abstract
Current observations allow Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) in asteroid mass range $10^{17}-10^{22}$ g to constitute the entire dark matter (DM) energy density (barring a small mass range constrained by 21 cm observations). In this work, we explore the possibility of probing PBH with masses $10^{17}-10^{19}\,{\rm g}$ via upcoming X and Gamma Imaging Spectrometer (XGIS) telescope array on-board the Transient High-Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) mission. While our projected limits are comparable with those proposed in the literature for $10^{16}\,{\rm g}\,<\,M_{\mathrm{PBH}}\,<\,10^{17}\,{\rm g}$, we show that the XGIS-THESEUS mission can potentially provide the strongest bound for $10^{17} \mathrm{~g}<M_{\mathrm{PBH}} \lesssim 3\times 10^{18} \mathrm{~g}$ for non-rotating PBHs. The bounds become more stringent by nearly an order of magnitude for maximally rotating PBHs in the mass range $5\times10^{15}\,{\rm g}\,<\,M_{\rm PBH}\,\lesssim\,10^{19}\,{\rm g}$.

Searching for Dark Matter with MeVCube
Using Fisher forecasting, the author shows that a 2U to 12U MeVCube CubeSat could probe new dark matter parameter space for evaporating primordial black holes and MeV-scale decaying or annihilating dark matter.
