Microlensing events and primordial black holes in the axionlike curvaton model

Recently, Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) observations found 12 candidates for microlensing events. These events can be explained by primordial black holes (PBHs) with masses of ${10}^{-7}$-${10}^{-6}{M}_{\odot }$ and a fraction of all dark matter of $f_{\mathrm{P}\mathrm{B}\mathrm{H}}=\mathcal{O}({10}^{-1})$. In this paper, we consider the PBH production in two types of the axionlike curvaton models, which predict an enhancement of the curvature perturbations on small scales. We show that the microlensing events can be explained in the axionlike curvaton model and discuss the cosmological implications such as gravitational waves.
