The Contribution of Disrupted Dense Star Clusters to Gaia's Compact Object Binaries
Aryanna Schiebelbein-Zwack, Claire S. Ye, Marta Reina-Campos +3
We present the first model of the Milky Way's detectable compact object--luminous star binary population from disrupted dense star clusters. We bridge large-scale cosmological star…
Realistic predictions for Gaia black hole discoveries: comparison of isolated binary and dynamical formation models
Pranav Nagarajan, Kareem El-Badry, Chirag Chawla +6
Astrometry from Gaia has enabled discovery of three dormant black holes (BHs) in au-scale binaries. Numerous models have been proposed to explain their formation, including several…
Mixed origins: strong natal kicks for some black holes and none for others
Pranav Nagarajan, Kareem El-Badry
Using stellar kinematic data from Gaia DR3, we revisit constraints on black hole (BH) natal kicks from observed accreting and detached BH binaries. We compare the space velocities…
