White Dwarf Subsystems in Core-Collapsed Globular Clusters
Kyle Kremer, Nicholas Z. Rui, Newlin C. Weatherford +5
Numerical and observational evidence suggests that massive white dwarfs dominate the innermost regions of core-collapsed globular clusters by both number and total mass. Using NGC…
Matching Globular Cluster Models to Observations
Nicholas Z. Rui, Kyle Kremer, Newlin C. Weatherford +4
As ancient, gravitationally bound stellar populations, globular clusters are abundant, vibrant laboratories characterized by high frequencies of dynamical interactions coupled to c…
The Observed Rate of Binary Black Hole Mergers can be Entirely Explained by Globular Clusters
Carl L. Rodriguez, Kyle Kremer, Sourav Chatterjee +5
Since the first signal in 2015, the gravitational-wave detections of merging binary black holes (BBHs) by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations (LVC) have completely transformed our un…
Intermediate-mass Black Holes from High Massive-star Binary Fractions in Young Star Clusters
Elena González, Kyle Kremer, Sourav Chatterjee +5
Black holes formed in dense star clusters, where dynamical interactions are frequent, may have fundamentally different properties than those formed through isolated stellar evoluti…
Black Hole Mergers from Star Clusters with Top-Heavy Initial Mass Functions
Newlin C. Weatherford, Giacomo Fragione, Kyle Kremer +4
Recent observations of globular clusters (GCs) provide evidence that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) may not be universal, suggesting specifically that the IMF grows increa…
Fast Optical Transients from Stellar-Mass Black Hole Tidal Disruption Events in Young Star Clusters
Kyle Kremer, Wenbin Lu, Anthony L. Piro +3
Observational evidence suggests that the majority of stars may have been born in stellar clusters or associations. Within these dense environments, dynamical interactions lead to h…
