Massive black hole assembly in nuclear star clusters
Konstantinos Kritos, Emanuele Berti, Joseph Silk
Nuclear star clusters, which fragment into metal-poor stars in situ at the centers of protogalaxies, provide ideal environments for the formation of intermediate-mass black holes w…
Dynamical formation of black hole binaries in dense star clusters: Rapid cluster evolution code
Konstantinos Kritos, Vladimir Strokov, Vishal Baibhav +1
Gravitational-wave observations have just started probing the properties of black hole binary merger populations. The observation of binaries with very massive black holes and sign…
Primordial black hole mergers from three-body interactions
Gabriele Franciolini, Konstantinos Kritos, Emanuele Berti +1
Current gravitational-wave observations set the most stringent bounds on the abundance of primordial black holes (PBHs) in the solar mass range. This constraint, however, inherentl…
