Inferred timescales for common envelope ejection using wide astrometric companions
Andrei P. Igoshev, Hagai B. Perets, Erez Michaely
Evolution of close binaries often proceeds through the common envelope stage. The physics of the envelope ejection (CEE) is not yet understood, and several mechanisms were suggeste…
Solar luminosity bounds on mirror matter
Erez Michaely, Itzhak Goldman, Shmuel Nussinov
We present bounds on mirror dark matter scenario derived by using the effect of mirror matter on the luminosity of the Sun. In the perturbative regime where the mirror matter conce…
Gravitational-wave sources from mergers of binary black-holes catalyzed by fly-bys interactions in the field
Erez Michaely, Hagai B. Perets
Several scenarios were suggested for the origins of gravitational-wave (GW) sources from mergers of stellar binary black holes (BBHs). Here we propose a novel origin through cataly…
