Probing Intermediate Mass Black Holes in M87 through Multi-Wavelength Gravitational Wave Observations
Razieh Emami, Abraham Loeb
We analyze triple systems composed of the super massive black hole (SMBH) near the center of M87 and a pair of black holes (BHs) with masses in the range . We…
Detectability of Gravitational Wave from a population of Inspiralling Black Holes in Milky Way Mass Galaxies
Razieh Emami, Abraham Loeb
We estimate the rate of inspiral for a population of stellar mass BHs in the star cluster around the super massive black hole at the center of Milky Way mass galaxies. Our approach…
Observational signatures of the black hole Mass Distribution in the Galactic Center
Razieh Emami, Abraham Loeb
We simulate the star cluster, made of stars in the main sequence and different black hole (BH) remnants, around SgrA* at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Tracking stellar evolut…
Formation Redshift of the Massive Black Holes Detected by LIGO
Razieh Emami, Abraham Loeb
We compare the event rate density detected by LIGO to the comoving number density of isolated stellar progenitors and find a range for their formation redshift. Our limit depends o…
