Abstract Magnetically charged black holes (MBHs) are interesting solutions of the Standard Model and general relativity. They may possess a “hairy” electroweak-symmetric corona outside the event horizon, which speeds up their Hawking radiation and leads them to become nearly extremal on short timescales. Their masses could range from the Planck scale up to the Earth mass. We study various methods to search for primordially produced MBHs and estimate the upper limits on their abundance. We revisit the Parker bound on magnetic monopoles and show that it can be extended by several orders of magnitude using the large-scale coherent magnetic fields in Andromeda. This sets a mass-independent constraint that MBHs have an abundance less than 4 × 10−4 times that of dark matter. MBHs can also be captured in astrophysical systems like the Sun, the Earth, or neutron stars. There, they can become non-extremal either from merging with an oppositely charged MBH or absorbing nucleons. The resulting Hawking radiation can be detected as neutri- nos, photons, or heat. High-energy neutrino searches in particular can set a stronger bound than the Parker bound for some MBH masses, down to an abundance 10−7 of dark matter.

AbstractThe studied conjecture is that ultra high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are hypothetical Planck neutrinos arising in the decay of the protons falling onto the gravastar. The proton is assumed to decay at the Planck scale into positron and four Planck neutrinos. The supermassive black holes inside active galactic nuclei, while interpreted as gravastars, are considered as UHECR sources. The scattering of the Planck neutrinos by the proton at the Planck scale is considered. The Planck neutrinos contribution to the CR events may explain the CR spectrum from 5 × 1018 eV to 1020 eV. The muon number in the Planck neutrinos-initiated shower is estimated to be larger by a factor of 3/2 in comparison with the standard model that is consistent with the observational data.

In the tunneling framework of Hawking radiation, the quantum tunneling of massive particles in the modified Schwarzschild black holes from gravity's rainbow is investigated. While the massive particle tunneling from the event horizon, the metric fluctuation is taken into account, not only due to energy conservation but also to the Planck scale effect of spacetime. The obtained results show that, the emission rate is related to changes of the black hole's quantum corrected entropies before and after the emission. This implies that, considering the quantum effect of spacetime, information conservation of black holes is probable. Meanwhile, the quantum corrected entropy of the modified black hole is obtained and the leading correction behave as log-area type. And that, the emission spectrum with Planck scale correction is obtained and it deviates from the thermal spectrum.

In recent years, several studies have demonstrated the benefit of using deep learning to solve typical tasks related to high energy physics data taking and analysis. In particular, generative adversarial networks are a good candidate to supplement the simulation of the detector response in a collider environment. Training of neural network models has been made tractable with the improvement of optimization methods and the advent of GP-GPU well adapted to tackle the highly-parallelizable task of training neural nets. Despite these advancements, training of large models over large data sets can take days to weeks. Even more so, finding the best model architecture and settings can take many expensive trials. To get the best out of this new technology, it is important to scale up the available network-training resources and, consequently, to provide tools for optimal large-scale distributed training. In this context, our development of a new training workflow, which scales on multi-node/multi-GPU architectures with an eye to deployment on high performance computing machines is described. We describe the integration of hyper parameter optimization with a distributed training framework using Message Passing Interface, for models defined in keras [12] or pytorch [13]. We present results on the speedup of training generative adversarial networks trained on a data set composed of the energy deposition from electron, photons, charged and neutral hadrons in a fine grained digital calorimeter.

Three mechanisms of getting high energies in particle collisions in the ergosphere of the rotating black holes are considered. The consequences of these mechanisms for observation of ultra high energy cosmic rays particles on the Earth as result of conversion of superheavy dark matter particles into ordinary particles are discussed.

With reference to Planck scale, Mach’s relation, increasing support for large scale cosmic anisotropy and preferred directions and by introducing two new parameters Gamma and Beta, right from the beginning of Planck scale, we make an attempt to estimate ordinary matter density ratio, dark matter density ratio, mass, radius, temperature, age and expansion velocity (from and about the baby universe in all directions). We would like suggest that, from the beginning of Planck scale, 1) Dark matter can be considered as a kind of cosmic foam responsible for formation of galaxies. 2) Cosmic angular velocity is directly proportional to squared cosmic temperature. 3) Ratio of critical temperature to actual temperature plays a heuristic role in understanding ordinary and dark matter density ratios. 4) Cosmic expansion velocity increases with decreasing total matter density ratio. 5) There is no need to consider dark energy for understanding cosmic acceleration.

Quark matter which contains [Formula: see text]-quarks in addition to [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]- could be stable or metastable. In this case, lumps made of this strange matter, called strangelets, could occasionally hit the Earth. When travelling through the atmosphere they would behave not dissimilar to usual high-velocity meteors with only exception that, eventually, strangelets reach the surface. As these encounters are expected to be extremely rare events, very large exposure is needed for their observation. Fluorescence detectors utilized in large ultra-high energy cosmic ray observatories, such as the Pierre Auger observatory and the Telescope Array are well suited for a task of the detection of these events. The flux limits that can be obtained with the Telescope Array fluorescence detectors could be as low as 2.5 × 10−22 cm−2s−1sr−1 which would improve by two orders of magnitude of the strongest present limits obtained from ancient mica crystals.

Particles that carry a magnetic monopole charge are proposed by various theories which go beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The expected mass of magnetic monopoles varies depending on the theory describing its origin, generally the monopole mass far exceeds those which can be created at accelerators. Magnetic monopoles gain kinetic energy in large scale galactic magnetic fields and, depending on their mass, can obtain relativistic velocities. IceCube is a high energy neutrino detector using the clear ice at the South Pole as a detection medium. As monopoles pass through this ice they produce optical light by a variety of mechanisms. With increasing velocity, they produce light by catalysis of baryon decay, luminescence in the ice associated with electronic excitations, indirect and direct Cherenkov light from the monopole track, and Cherenkov light from cascades induced by pair creation and photonuclear reactions. By searching for this light, current best limits for the monopole flux over a broad range of velocities was achieved using the IceCube detector. A review of these magnetic monopole searches is presented.

We start by reviewing the existing literature on the creation of black holes during high-energy particle collisions, both in the absence and in the presence of extra, compact, spacelike dimensions. Then, we discuss in detail the properties of the produced higher-dimensional black holes, namely the horizon radius, temperature and life-time, as well as the physics that governs the evaporation of these objects, through the emission of Hawking radiation. We first study the emission of visible Hawking radiation on the brane: we derive a master equation for the propagation of fields with arbitrary spin in the induced-on-the-brane black hole background, and we review all existing results in the literature for the emission of scalars, fermions and gauge bosons during the spin-down and Schwarzschild phases of the life of the black hole. Both analytical and numerical results for the graybody factors and radiation spectra are reviewed and exact results for the number and type of fields emitted on the brane as a function of the dimensionality of space–time are discussed. We finally study the emission of Hawking radiation in the bulk: graybody factors and radiation spectra are presented for the emission of scalar modes, and the ratio of the missing energy over the visible one is calculated for different values of the number of extra dimensions.
