Abstract [en]

Constraints on primordial black holes in the range 10(-18) M circle dot to 10(3) M circle dot are reevaluated for a general class of extended mass functions. Whereas previous work has assumed that PBHs are produced with one single mass, instead there is expected to be a range of masses even in the case of production from a single mechanism; constraints therefore change from previous literature. Although tightly constrained in the majority of cases, it is shown that, even under conservative assumptions, primordial black holes in the mass range 10(-10) M circle dot to 10(-8) M circle dot could still constitute the entirety of the dark matter. This stresses both the importance for a comprehensive reevaluation of all respective constraints that have previously been evaluated only for a monochromatic mass function and the need to obtain more constraints in the allowed mass range.
