We describe BlackHawk, a public C program for calculating the Hawking evaporation spectra of any black hole distribution. This program allows the users to compute the primary and secondary spectra of stable or long-lived particles generated by Hawking radiation of the distribution of black holes, and to study their evolution in time. The physics of Hawking radiation is presented, and the capabilities, features and usage of BlackHawk are described here under the form of a manual. This is the BlackHawk v2.0 manual, which is available on the BlackHawk webpage http://blackhawk.hepforge.org/. A brief release note summarizing the new aspects of BlackHawk v2.0 as well as illustrating examples can be found in https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.02737.

  1. Revisiting PBH accretion, evaporation and their cosmological consequences

    astro-ph.HE 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Relativistic accretion onto Kerr primordial black holes gives roughly 4.5x mass growth and fast spin-down, strengthening BBN bounds, lowering the survival mass to ~2.7e14 g, and erasing the high-frequency stochastic g...

  2. Probing Memory-Burdened Primordial Black Holes with Galactic Sources observed by LHAASO

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    LHAASO spectra of four Galactic sources are used to set upper limits on the abundance of memory-burdened primordial black holes lighter than 10^9 g.

  3. Evaporation and fate of covariant quantum black holes

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For a covariant LQG black-hole metric, Hawking mass-loss rates depend on emitted-particle spin and deviate from Schwarzschild rates only for sub-Planckian masses.

  4. Refining primordial black hole dark matter constraints with dust heating: the role of spin and halo profile dependence

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Dust-heating constraints on PBH dark matter tighten to f_PBH ≈ 10^-4 when PBH spin is included, with the strongest limits for the Isothermal halo profile and weakest for Burkert.

  5. Anisotropic Neutrino Emission from Spinning, Moving, and Charged Primordial Black Holes

    astro-ph.CO 2025-08 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    Kerr-Newman black holes moving relativistically emit neutrinos in a narrow forward cone, a combination of known spin and Doppler effects.

  6. Probing Double-Peaked Gamma-Ray Spectra from Primordial Black Holes with Next-Generation Gamma-Ray Experiments

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A likelihood forecast shows e-ASTROGAM could, in parts of the f1-f2 plane, distinguish double-peaked from single-peaked PBH gamma-ray spectra in the 1e15 to 1e17 g mass window.

  7. New bounds on Memory Burdened Primordial Black Holes from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    Memory-burdened primordial black holes lighter than 10^9 grams are newly constrained by Big Bang nucleosynthesis, with a residual unconstrained window around 1-100 grams for suppression index k=2.
