Constraining dark matter using 20-year INTEGRAL/IBIS observations I: Primordial black holes
Primordial black holes (PBHs) in the asteroid-mass window remain a viable dark matter candidate. In the lower part of this mass range, Hawking evaporation produces electrons and positrons that generate diffuse hard X-ray emission through inverse Compton (IC) scattering on Galactic radiation fields. We present the first...
