摘要
Quantum gravity effects could make a black hole explode in a time shorter than the Hawking radiation time, via local tunneling through a white hole solution. Here we estimate the size of a primordial black hole exploding today via this process, using a simple generic model. Fast radio bursts, strong signals with millisecond duration, which are probably of extragalactic origin and have an unknown source, have wavelengths not far from the expected size of the exploding hole. We also discuss the high-energy component of the signal. These results suggest a new window for quantum gravity phenomenology.
