Red vs. Blue: How metallicity shapes black hole dynamics and mergers in dense star clusters

Saloni Agrawal, Kyle Kremer, Michael Zevin +6

Dense star clusters are a well-established environment for the formation of gravitational wave sources through dynamical interactions. Recent LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) events such as…

The Contribution of Disrupted Dense Star Clusters to Gaia's Compact Object Binaries

Aryanna Schiebelbein-Zwack, Claire S. Ye, Marta Reina-Campos +3

We present the first model of the Milky Way's detectable compact object--luminous star binary population from disrupted dense star clusters. We bridge large-scale cosmological star…

Black hole mergers from dense star clusters with realistic binary populations

Christopher E. O'Connor, Kyle Kremer, Saloni Agrawal +5

We present a suite of 24 full-lifetime simulations of dense star clusters with the Cluster Monte Carlo (CMC) code, featuring updated input physics and a realistic distribution of i…

Inferring Globular Cluster Initial Mass Function from Stellar Streams

Claire S. Ye, Raymond G. Carlberg

The Gaia mission has provided precise astrometry and spectrophotometry for billions of stars in the Milky Way, enabling the identification and kinematic characterization of stellar…

The diverse outcomes of binary white dwarf mergers and connections to Galactic LISA sources

Kyle Kremer, Katelyn Breivik, Claire S. Ye

In the coming decade, the millihertz gravitational wave observatory LISA will provide the best constraints yet on the tens of thousands of close white dwarf binaries in the Milky W…
