2 Outline Outline Description of the Loop Black Holes: Shape and Metric Thermodynamic properties Cosmological Implications: Creation Process Constraints on Inflation Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

3 Description of the Loop Black Holes Loop Quantum Cosmology Applied to Black Holes The space time inside a black hole is homogeneous: apply LQC techniques and extend analytically outside. [Abhay Ashtekar, Martin Bojowald, Leonardo Modesto, Parampreet Singh,etc.] Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

4 Description of the Loop Black Holes Shape of Ultra Light Loop Black Holes Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

5 The Metric Description of the Loop Black Holes ds 2 = (r r +)(r r )(r + r ) 2 r 4 + a 2 dt 2 0 dr 2 ( a r 2 + r2) dω 2, + (r r + )(r r )r 4 (r+r ) d 2 (r 4 +a 2 0 ) r + = 2m, r = 2mP, r = 2mP 2 ; 0 < P < 1. Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

6 Description of the Loop Black Holes Loop Black Hole Temperature T(m) = (2m) 3 4π[(2m) 4 + a 2 0 ]. Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

7 Creation Cosmological Implications ρ(m) 1 π 3 exp( F/T) where F = F BH F R. Validity of thermodynamics: local equilibrium: t reaction < t exp H 1 T < GeV. Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

8 Inflation Cosmological Implications 0 (a(t i )) 3 m 0 (m i )ρ i (m i ) (a(t 0 )) 3 dm i = 0.22ρ crit = ρ DM a(t 0) a(t i ) = e85 60 e-folds ago, was the end of inflation which lasted for at least 60 e-folds. T inflation GeV a(t 0) a(t i ) = e85 Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13

9 Conclusion Conclusion Light Loop Black Holes: small cross-section, stable, heavy. Possible Dark matter. Would be created during Inflation. Constrains at least 2-stage inflation. Isabeau Prémont-Schwarz (AEI) Cosmological Implications of LBH DM Naxos Sept / 13
