Emulating the complex galactic-scale orbital dynamics of LISA massive black hole pairs with normalizing flows

Pedro R. Capelo, Carlos Moreno Martinez, Nodens Koren +6

Massive black hole (MBH) pairs, formed in galaxy mergers, may coalesce in a burst of gravitational waves. Estimating the coalescence time-scales and rates is a long-standing astrop…

The LISA Astrophysics MBHcatalogues Project: A comparison of predictions of simulated massive black hole binaries

David Izquierdo-Villalba, Melanie Habouzit, Matteo Bonetti +67

In the hierarchical paradigm of galaxy formation, central massive black holes (MBHs) are expected to coalesce after the merger of their host galaxies. One of the main goals of the…

Lighting up the nano-hertz gravitational wave sky: opportunities and challenges of multimessenger astronomy with PTA experiments

Riccardo J. Truant, David Izquierdo-Villalba, Alberto Sesana +4

Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments have the potential to unveil continuous gravitational wave (CGW) signals from individual massive black hole binaries (MBHBs). Detecting them i…

Resolving the nano-Hz gravitational wave sky: the detectability of eccentric binaries with PTA experiments

Riccardo J. Truant, David Izquierdo-Villalba, Alberto Sesana +2

Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) collaborations reported evidence of a nano-Hz stochastic gravitational wave background (sGWB) compatible with an adiabatically inspiraling population of m…

An effective model for the tidal disruption of satellites undergoing minor mergers with axisymmetric primaries

Ludovica Varisco, Massimo Dotti, Matteo Bonetti +2

According to the hierarchical formation paradigm, galaxies form through mergers of smaller entities and massive black holes (MBHs), if lurking at their centers, migrate to the nucl…

Connecting low-redshift LISA massive black hole mergers to the nHz stochastic gravitational wave background

David Izquierdo-Villalba, Alberto Sesana, Monica Colpi +4

Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments worldwide recently reported evidence of a nHz stochastic gravitational wave background (sGWB) compatible with the existence of slowly inspiral…
