From Inspiral to Expansion: The Wake-Driven Torque on Binary Black Holes in Gaseous Medium
Jixuan Yang, Lile Wang, Xinyu Li +1
Binary black holes (BBHs) in gaseous medium, such as active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks, are important gravitational-wave sources, yet the gas-driven torque that governs their orb…
On the Evolution of Disk-Embedded Binaries: Framing Local Models in Global Context
Philip Kirkeberg, Rixin Li, Martin E. Pessah
The disks of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) have in recent years been recognized as possible sites for gravitational wave sources, leading to a series of numerical studies on the evo…
Hydrodynamical Evolution of Black-Hole Binaries Embedded in AGN Discs: III. The Effects of Viscosity
Rixin Li, Dong Lai
Stellar-mass binary black holes (BBHs) embedded in active galactic nucleus (AGN) discs offer a distinct dynamical channel to produce black hole mergers detected in gravitational wa…
Hydrodynamical Evolution of Black-Hole Binaries Embedded in AGN Discs: II. Dependence on Equation of State, Binary Mass, and Separation Scales
Rixin Li, Dong Lai
Stellar-mass binary black holes (BBHs) embedded in active galactic nucleus (AGN) discs offer a promising dynamical channel to produce black-hole mergers that are detectable by LIGO…
Hydrodynamical Evolution of Black-Hole Binaries Embedded in AGN Discs
Rixin Li, Dong Lai
Stellar-mass binary black holes (BBHs) embedded in active galactic nucleus (AGN) discs are possible progenitors of black-hole mergers detected in gravitational waves by LIGO/VIRGO.…
