In the framework of brane-world models lowering the Planck scale to the TeVrange, it has recently been pointed out that small black holes could be formedat particle colliders or by neutrinos interactions in the atmosphere. Thisarticle aims at reviewing other places and epochs where microscopic black holescould be formed : the interstellar medium and the early Universe. The relateddecay channels and the propagation of the emitted particles are studied toconclude that, in spite of the large creation rate for such black holes, theamount of produced particles do not conflict with experimental data. Thisshows, from the astronomical viewpoint, that models with large extra dimensionsmaking the gravity scale much lower are compatible with observations.Comment: To appear in Ap
