BlackHawk v2.0: A public code for calculating the Hawking evaporation spectra of any black hole distribution

We describe BlackHawk, a public C program for calculating the Hawking evaporation spectra of any black hole distribution. This program allows the users to compute the primary and secondary spectra of stable or long-lived particles generated by Hawking radiation of the distribution of black holes, and to study their evolution in time. The physics of Hawking radiation is presented, and the capabilities, features and usage of BlackHawk are described here under the form of a manual. This is the BlackHawk v2.0 manual, which is available on the BlackHawk webpage http://blackhawk.hepforge.org/. A brief release note summarizing the new aspects of BlackHawk v2.0 as well as illustrating examples can be found in https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.02737.
