Primordial black hole formation and multimessenger signals in a complex singlet extension of the standard model
We investigate the formation of primordial black holes (PBHs) induced by a first-order electroweak phase transition in a realistic renormalizable framework, the complex singlet extension of the Standard Model. We perform a quantitative analysis of the PBH abundance and identify parameter regions consistent with current microlensing constraints. Furthermore, we show that the same parameter space predicts observable stochastic gravitational waves within the sensitivities of future space-based detectors, as well as a sizable deviation in the Higgs triple coupling that can be probed at future lepton colliders. Our results highlight a comprehensive multimessenger framework in which PBHs, gravitational waves, and collider observations can jointly test the dynamics of a strongly first-order electroweak phase transition in the early Universe.
