abstract

The quark-gluon to hadron transition affects the evolution of cosmological perturbations. If the phase transition is first order, the sound speed vanishes during the transition, and density perturbations fall freely. This distorts the primordial Harrison-Zel'dovich spectrum of density fluctuations below the Hubble scale at the transition. Peaks are produced, which grow at most linearly in wavenumber, both for the hadron-photon-lepton fluid and for cold dark matter. For cold dark matter which is kinetically decoupled well before the QCD transition clumps of masses below $10^{-10} M_\odot$ are produced.

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the Dark Dimension scenario, quantum gravity bounds force all viable primordial black hole formation channels to yield five-dimensional, slowly evaporating black holes, with lifetimes up to about 10^13 years.
