Gravitational Wave Astronomy With TianQin
En-Kun Li, Shuai Liu, Alejandro Torres-Orjuela +50
The paper outlines the scientific potential of the TianQin space‑based gravitational‑wave observatory, describing the types of compact‑object sources it can detect in the mHz band…
Exploring the dynamical evolution of binary stars in multiple-population globular clusters
J. Bruce, E. Vesperini, A. Askar +5
The presence of multiple stellar populations in globular clusters leads to a complex dynamical environment that significantly influences the evolution of binary stars, which in tur…
Multiband gravitational wave observations of eccentric escaping binary black holes from globular clusters
Yuetong Zhao, Abbas Askar, Youjun Lu +7
Stellar-mass binary black holes (sBBHs) formed in globular clusters (GCs) are promising sources for multiband gravitational wave (GW) observations, particularly with low- and middl…
Simulations of Globular Cluster Evolution with Multiple Stellar Populations
Mirek Giersz, Abbas Askar, Arkadiusz Hypki +3
The formation of stars with light-element abundance variations in globular clusters and the subsequent dynamical evolution of these multiple populations remains an open question. O…
Self-lensing binaries in globular clusters -- predictions for ELT
Grzegorz Wiktorowicz, Matthew Middleton, Mirek Giersz +4
Self-lensing (SL) represents a powerful technique for detecting compact objects in binary systems through gravitational microlensing effects, when a compact companion transits in f…
Efficient black hole seed formation in low metallicity and dense stellar clusters with implications for JWST sources
M. C. Vergara, A. Askar, F. Flammini Dotti +7
Recent observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal young massive clusters (YMCs) as key building blocks of early galaxies. They are not only important constituen…
