Bounds on extra dimensions from micro black holes in the context of the metastable Higgs vacuum
Abstract We estimate the rate at which collisions between ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays can form small black holes in models with extra dimensions. If recent conjectures about false vacuum decay catalyzed by black hole evaporation apply, the lack of vacuum decay events in our past light cone may place new bounds on the black hole formation rate and thus on the fundamental scale of gravity in these models.

Girls Rock Campaign Boston, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with a mission to empower girls and women to believe in themselves by providing a supportive community that fosters self-expression, confidence and collaboration through music education and performance, celebrated its five year anniversary this year. Looking back over the past five years, GRCB, by demand, has expanded consistently since its founding in 2010.
