Signatures of a subpopulation of hierarchical mergers in the GWTC-4 gravitational-wave dataset

Cailin Plunkett, Thomas Callister, Michael Zevin +1

Repeated black-hole mergers in dense stellar clusters are a plausible mechanism to populate the predicted gap in black hole masses due to the pair-instability supernova process. Th…
