Intermediate mass black holes in AGN disks II. Model predictions & observational constraints
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford, B. Kocsis +2
If intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) grow efficiently in gas disks around supermassive black holes, their host active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks should exhibit myriad observa…

Intermediate mass black holes in AGN disks: I. Production & Growth
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford, W. Lyra +1
Here we propose a mechanism for efficiently growing intermediate mass black holes (IMBH) in disks around supermassive black holes. Stellar mass objects can efficiently agglomerate…
