The Galactic Black Hole mass distribution
L S. Rocha, N. Pires, L. M. de Sá +8
The population of extragalactic black holes has been significantly expanded and better understood since the first detection of gravitational waves. Over the past decade, approximat…
Compact object populations over cosmic time I. BOSSA: a Binary Object environment-Sensitive Sampling Algorithm
L. M. de Sá, A. Bernardo, L. S. Rocha +2
Binary population synthesis (BPS) is an essential tool for extracting information about massive binary evolution from gravitational-wave (GW) detections of compact object mergers.…
Compact object populations over cosmic time II. Compact object merger rates and masses over redshift from varying initial conditions
L. M. de Sá, L. S. Rocha, A. Bernardo +2
We perform a first study of the impact of varying two components of the initial conditions in binary population synthesis of compact binary mergers - the initial mass function, whi…
A light strange star in the remnant HESS J1731-347: minimal consistency checks
J. E. Horvath, L. S. Rocha, L. M. de Sá +5
Context: Recently, Doroshenko and collaborators reported a very low-mass compact star, a Central Compact Object named XMMU J173203.3-344518 inside the supernova remnant HESS J1731-…
An Overview of Compact Star Populations and Some of Its Open Problems
L. M. de Sá, A. Bernardo, R. R. A. Bachega +3
The study of compact object populations has come a long way since the determination of the mass of the Hulse-Taylor pulsar, and we now count on more than 150 known Galactic neutron…
Counting States: A Combinatorial Analysis of SQM Fragmentation
A. Bernardo, L. Paulucci, L. M. de Sá +1
The Strange Quark matter (SQM) hypothesis states that at extreme pressure and density conditions a new ground state of matter would arise, in which half of the \textit{down} quarks…
