We propose a mechanism that forms primordial black holes (PBHs) via a first-order electroweak phase transition (FOEWPT). The FOEWPT is realized by extending the Standard Model with a real singlet scalar, while the PBH formation is achieved by the collapse of non-topological solitons called Fermi-balls. Such solitons form via trapping fermions in the false vacuum during the FOEWPT, and they eventually collapse into PBHs due to the internal Yukawa attractive force. We demonstrate that a scenario with PBH dark matter candidate can exist, and the typical experimental signals include FOEWPT gravitational waves and the multi-lepton/jet or displaced vertex final states at the LHC.

Can the universe be matter-dominated after a supercooled first-order phase transition?
After a supercooled first-order phase transition, the scalar field's equation of state is set by the bubble-wall Lorentz factor γ*, and matter domination is delayed until a/a* ≃ γ* in the free-streaming limit.

Numerical simulations of primordial black hole formation via delayed first-order phase transitions
Spherically symmetric numerical relativity shows false-vacuum domains from delayed first-order phase transitions form type B (baby-universe) or type A (direct-collapse) primordial black holes, separated by a robust t_...

Complementary Probes of Warped Extra Dimension: Colliders, Gravitational Waves and Primordial Black Holes from Phase Transitions
In Randall-Sundrum warped extra dimension models, the supercooled radion phase transition can form primordial black holes that account for all of dark matter for IR scales 10 TeV to 10^4 TeV, with correlated gravitati...

What happens when supercooling is terminated by curvature flipping of the effective potential?
Supercooling terminated by curvature flipping still proceeds by bubble nucleation and expansion, not by smooth phase mixing, according to 3D lattice simulations.

PBH formation and Gravitational Waves as Multi-messenger Signals of First-order Phase Transitions
False-vacuum collapse during first-order phase transitions can form PBHs and emit GWs across a broad parameter range, and MeV-scale classically conformal U(1)_{B-L} symmetry breaking has the largest region where both ...
