Description

We probe the Randall-Sundrum braneworld cosmology via the radiative nature of primordial black holes (PBHs). The effects of higher-dimensionality on the cosmic-ray spectra of extragalactic photons and galactic antiprotons from PBHs are investigated. Observational implications for the braneworld geometry as well as the inflationary primordial perturbation as a seed of PBHs are provided
