On the rate of black hole binary mergers in galactic nuclei due to dynamical hardening
Nathan W. C. Leigh, Aaron M. Geller, B. McKernan +9
We assess the contribution of dynamical hardening by direct three-body scattering interactions to the rate of stellar-mass black hole binary (BHB) mergers in galactic nuclei. We de…

AGN photoionization of gas in companion galaxies as a probe of AGN radiation in time and direction
William C. Keel, Vardha N. Bennert, Anna Pancoast +9
We consider AGN photoionization of gas in companion galaxies (cross-ionization) as a way to sample the intensity of AGN radiation in both direction and time, independent of the gas…

The Redshift Completeness of Local Galaxy Catalogs
S. R. Kulkarni, D. A. Perley, A. A. Miller
There is considerable interest in understanding the demographics of galaxies within the local universe (defined, for our purposes, as the volume within a radius of 200 Mpc or z<0.0…
