Gravitational Atoms and Black Hole Binaries
Giovanni Maria Tomaselli
Several models of physics beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of new ultralight bosons. This thesis investigates a way to discover such particles through observations o…
Legacy of boson clouds on black hole binaries
Giovanni Maria Tomaselli, Thomas F. M. Spieksma, Gianfranco Bertone
Superradiant clouds of ultralight bosons can leave an imprint on the gravitational waveform of black hole binaries through "ionization" and "resonances." We study the sequence of r…
Resonant history of gravitational atoms in black hole binaries
Giovanni Maria Tomaselli, Thomas F. M. Spieksma, Gianfranco Bertone
Rotating black holes can produce superradiant clouds of ultralight bosons. When the black hole is part of a binary system, its cloud can undergo resonances and ionization. These pr…
