On Ellipsoidal Collapse and Primordial Black-Hole Formation [CEA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1602.04815


We reinvestigate gravitational ellipsoidal collapse with special focus on its impact on primordial black-hole formation. For a generic model we demonstrate that the abundance and energy density of the produced primordial black holes will be significantly decreased when the non-sphericity of the overdensities is taken into account.
