Impact of gas hardening on the population properties of hierarchical black hole mergers in AGN disks
M. Paola Vaccaro, Michela Mapelli, Carole Périgois +5
Hierarchical black hole (BH) mergers in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are unique among formation channels of binary black holes (BBHs) because they are likely associated with elect…
Dynamical formation of BH1 in a young star cluster
Sara Rastello, Giuliano Iorio, Michela Mapelli +5
BH1, the first quiescent black hole (BH) detected from data, poses a challenge to most binary evolution models: its current mass ratio is , and its orbi…
Stellar-mass black holes in the Hyades star cluster?
Stefano Torniamenti, Mark Gieles, Zephyr Penoyre +3
Astrophysical models of binary-black hole mergers in the Universe require a significant fraction of stellar-mass black holes (BHs) to receive negligible natal kicks to explain the…
Eccentric black hole mergers via three-body interactions in young, globular, and nuclear star clusters
Marco Dall'Amico, Michela Mapelli, Stefano Torniamenti +1
Eccentric mergers are a signature of the dynamical formation channel of binary black holes (BBHs) in dense stellar environments and hierarchical triple systems. Here, we investigat…
