On the population III binary black hole mergers with intermediate mass black holes: dependence on common envelope parameter

Kotaro Hijikawa, Tomoya Kinugawa, Ataru Tanikawa +2

The current gravitational wave (GW) detectors have successfully observed many binary compact objects, and the third generation ground-based GW detectors such as Einstein telescope…

On the population III binary black hole mergers beyond the pair-instability mass gap

Kotaro Hijikawa, Ataru Tanikawa, Tomoya Kinugawa +2

We perform a binary population synthesis calculation incorporating very massive population (Pop.) III stars up to 1500 , and investigate the nature of binary black hole (B…

Observability of inflated companion stars after supernovae in massive binaries

Misa Ogata, Ryosuke Hirai, Kotaro Hijikawa

We carry out a systematic study of the response of companion stars in massive binaries after being impacted by supernova ejecta. A total of 720 1D stellar evolution calculations ar…

Population III Binary Black Holes: Effects of Convective Overshooting on Formation of GW190521

Ataru Tanikawa, Tomoya Kinugawa, Takashi Yoshida +2

GW190521 is a merger of two black holes (BHs), wherein at least one BH lies within the pair-instability (PI) mass gap, and it is difficult to form because of the effects of PI supe…

The rate of iPTF 14gqr like ultra-stripped supernovae and binary evolution leading to double neutron star formation

Kotaro Hijikawa, Tomoya Kinugawa, Takashi Yoshida +1

Double neutron star (DNS) systems are produced from massive binaries. A supernova (SN) explosion of an extremely stripped star is expected to occur at the final stage of DNS format…
