Fast Radio Bursts from White Dwarf Binary Mergers: Isolated and Triple-Induced Channels
Cheyanne Shariat, Claire S. Ye, Smadar Naoz +1
The detection of fast radio bursts (FRBs) in both young and old stellar populations suggests multiple formation pathways, beyond just young magnetars from core-collapse supernovae.…
Connecting Cores and Black Hole Dynamics Across Scales: From Globular Clusters to Massive Ellipticals
Kyle Kremer, Newlin C. Weatherford, Philip F. Hopkins +2
The centers of massive elliptical galaxies exhibit a wide range in density profiles, from central cusps to resolved cores with order kiloparsec sizes. The cored ellipticals have be…
Very Massive Stars and High N/O: A Tale of the Nitrogen-enriched Super Star Cluster in the Sunburst Arc
Yanlong Shi, Liang Dai, Norman Murray +3
The lensed Sunburst Arc () hosts a young (--), massive (), compact () Lyman-continuum (LyC) le…
Is GW231123 a hierarchical merger?
Lachlan Passenger, Sharan Banagiri, Eric Thrane +4
The binary black hole merger GW231123 is both the most massive gravitational-wave event observed and has the highest component spins measured to date. The dimensionless spins of th…
Mass Distribution of Binary Black Hole Mergers from Young and Old Dense Star Clusters
Claire S. Ye, Maya Fishbach, Kyle Kremer +1
Dense star clusters are thought to contribute significantly to the merger rates of stellar-mass binary black holes (BBHs) detected by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration. We combine…
The ejection and detectability of high- and hyper-velocity stars by compact object binaries in globular clusters
Fraser A. Evans, Steffani M. Grondin, Claire S. Ye +3
The dense cores of Milky Way globular clusters (GCs) play host to a variety of dynamical encounters between stellar objects, which can accelerate stars to velocities high enough to…
Gravitational-wave kicks impact spins of black holes from hierarchical mergers
Angela Borchers, Claire S. Ye, Maya Fishbach
One proposed black hole formation channel involves hierarchical mergers, where black holes form through repeated binary mergers. Previous studies have shown that such black holes f…
