Formation of Merging Black Hole Binaries Inside Massive AGN Stars
Sizheng Ma, Douglas N. C. Lin, David A. Velasco-Romero
Stars embedded in the disks of active galactic nuclei (AGN) can grow to hundreds of solar masses, and the same disks are expected to host a population of stellar-mass black holes.…
Stellar Population and Metal Production in AGN Disks
Chris L. Fryer, Jiamu Huang, Mohamad Ali-Dib +3
As gravitational wave detections increase the number of observed compact binaries (consisting of neutron stars or blacks), we begin to probe the different conditions producing thes…
The Population of Massive Stars in AGN Disks
Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin
Gravitational instability in the outskirts of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) disks lead to disk fragmentation and formation of super-massive (several 10^2Msun) stars with potentially…
The secular evolution of a uniform density star cluster immersed in a compressible galactic tidal field
P. B. Ivanov, D. N. C. Lin
Nuclear stellar clusters are common in the center of galaxies. We consider the possibility that their progenitors assumed to be globular clusters may have formed elsewhere, migrate…
A Shining Death of Unequal Supermassive Black Hole Binaries
Xian Chen, D. N. C. Lin, Xiaojia Zhang
In the CDM scenario, small galaxies merge to produce larger entities. Since supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are found in galaxies of all sizes, SMBH binaries (SMBHBs) are gener…
On the IMF in a Triggered Star Formation Context
Tingtao Zhou, Chelsea X. Huang, D. N. C. Lin +2
The origin of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is a fundamental issue in the theory of star formation. It is generally fit with a composite power law. Some clues on the prog…
