6 Sep 2016 | Abstract: | We investigate primordial black hole formation in the matter-dominated phase
of the Universe, where nonspherical effects in gravitational collapse play a
crucial role. This is in contrast to the black hole formation in a
radiation-dominated era. We apply the Zel’dovich approximation, Thorne’s hoop
conjecture, and Doroshkevich’s probability distribution and subsequently derive
the production probability $eta_{0}$ of primordial black holes. The numerical
result obtained is applicable even if the density fluctuation $sigma$ at
horizon entry is of the order of unity. For $sigmall 1$, we find a
semi-analytic formula $eta_{0}simeq 0.05556 sigma^{5}$, which is comparable
with the Khlopov-Polnarev formula. We find that the production probability in
the matter-dominated era is much larger than that in the radiation-dominated
era for $sigmalesssim 0.05$, while they are comparable with each other for
$sigmagtrsim 0.05$. We also discuss how $sigma$ can be written in terms of
primordial curvature perturbations. | Source: | arXiv, 1609.1588 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
