Disentangling nature from nurture: tracing the origin of seed black holes
Priyamvada Natarajan, Angelo Ricarte, Vivienne Baldassare +16
The origin and properties of black hole seeds that grow to produce the detected population of supermassive black holes are unconstrained at present. Despite the existence of severa…
Where are the Intermediate Mass Black Holes?
Jillian Bellovary, Alyson Brooks, Monica Colpi +7
Observational evidence has been mounting for the existence of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs, 10^2-10^5 Msun), but observing them at all, much less constraining their masses,…
X-ray Binary Evolution Across Cosmic Time
Tassos Fragos, Bret Lehmer, Michael Tremmel +8
High redshift galaxies permit the study of the formation and evolution of X-ray binary populations on cosmological timescales, probing a wide range of metallicities and star-format…
Black Hole Spin-Orbit Misalignment in Galactic X-ray Binaries
T. Fragos, M. Tremmel, E. Rantsiou +1
In black hole X-ray binaries, a misalignment between the spin axis of the black hole and the orbital angular momentum can occur during the supernova explosion that forms the compac…
