Best practices in software citation
Phil R. Van-Lane, Floor S. Broekgaarden, Daniel S. Katz +11
Software is both a foundational tool and a primary output of modern computational research, yet citation practices for software remain inconsistent, incomplete, and rarely machine-…
A Practical Primer on Software Citation in Research
Floor S. Broekgaarden, Phil R. Van-Lane, Sasha Levina +9
Software underlies virtually all modern research, yet citation practices for software remain inconsistent and often inadequate. This short primer offers practical guidance in two d…
The Stellar Winds Atlas II: Black Hole Formation at Solar Metallicity
Amedeo Romagnolo, Floor S. Broekgaarden, Alex C. Gormaz-Matamala +7
Stellar winds are a primary source of uncertainty in predicting the masses of black holes (BHs) from massive stars. At solar metallicity, theoretical models lead to widely divergen…
A Framework for Linking Pre- and Post-Common Envelope Binary Properties with Star Clusters: The First Demonstration with a Massive White Dwarf+M Dwarf Binary in Alessi 12
Steffani M. Grondin, Maria R. Drout, Jason Nordhaus +12
Common envelope (CE) evolution is a critical phase in the lives of binary stars, producing close binaries that are progenitors of type Ia supernovae and gravitational wave sources.…
How Common Are Common Envelopes? Quantifying Their Role in Forming Gravitational-Wave Sources
Floor S. Broekgaarden, Ana Lam, Sasha Levina +14
A central goal of gravitational-wave astronomy is to use merging binary black hole (BBH), black hole-neutron star (BHNS), and binary neutron star (BNS) systems as fossils to recons…
Lower Your Rates: On Claims of a Binary Black Hole Merger-Rate Crisis
Floor S. Broekgaarden
Recent studies have argued that isolated binary evolution simulations generically overestimate the observed local binary black hole (BBH) merger rate, even after adopting observati…
Massquerade: Impacts of Mass Ratio Reversals on Binary Black Hole Merger Rates and Mass Distributions
Tyler B. Smith, Floor Broekgaarden, Sasha Levina +4
We investigate the role of mass ratio reversal (MRR), in which the initially less massive star in a binary forms the more massive compact object, in shaping the astrophysical binar…
From cosmological simulations to binary black hole mergers: The impact of using analytical star formation history models on gravitational-wave source populations
Sasha Levina, Floor Broekgaarden, Lieke van Son +4
Observations of binary black hole (BBH) mergers provide a unique window into the lives of massive stars across cosmic time. Connecting redshift-dependent merger properties to massi…
The Stellar Winds Atlas I: Current uncertainties in mass-loss rates
Amedeo Romagnolo, Floor S. Broekgaarden, Konstantinos Antoniadis +1
Stellar winds are a major source of uncertainty in understanding the life and deaths of massive stars. Across studies in the field, prescriptions for stellar winds differ substanti…
