Why it is here

The event cannot be explained by contemporary PBH evaporation in the tested class, but the same low-energy null result yields stringent limits on light primordial-black-hole abundance.

Machine-assisted summary

The paper tests Hawking-boosted dark matter with momentum-dependent elastic operators and endothermic transitions, finding that the thermal spectrum inevitably overproduces lower-energy LZ recoils before reaching the 248 keV event.
