The most luminous AGN do not produce the majority of the detected stellar-mass black hole binary mergers in the local Universe

Niccolò Veronesi, Elena Maria Rossi, Sjoert van Velzen

Despite the increasing number of Gravitational Wave (GW) detections, the astrophysical origin of Binary Black Hole (BBH) mergers remains elusive. A promising formation channel for…

Constraints on the Galactic Centre environment from \textit{Gaia} hypervelocity stars III: Insights on a possible companion to Sgr A*

Fraser A. Evans, Alexander Rasskazov, Amber Remmelzwaal +4

We consider a scenario in which Sgr A* is in a massive black hole binary (MBHB) with an as-of-yet undetected supermassive or intermediate-mass black hole companion. Dynamical encou…

Lensing of gravitational waves from tidal disruption events

Martina Toscani, Elena M. Rossi, Nicola Tamanini +1

In this work, we investigate the effect of gravitational lensing on the gravitational wave (GW) signals of a population of tidal disruption events (TDEs). We estimate the number of…

The Large Magellanic Cloud Revealed in Gravitational Waves with LISA

Michael A. Keim, Valeriya Korol, Elena M. Rossi

The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will unveil the non-transient gravitational wave sky full of inspiralling stellar-mass compact binaries within the Local Universe. The…
