Extreme-mass ratio inspirals in strong segregation regime -- to inspiral or to get ejected?

Karamveer Kaur, Hagai Perets

Extreme-mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) of stellar-mass black holes (BHs) are among the main targets for upcoming low-frequency gravitational wave (GW) detectors such as the Laser Int…

Semi-Analytical Fokker Planck Models for Nuclear Star Clusters

Karamveer Kaur, Barak Rom, Re'em Sari

We study the dynamics of nuclear star clusters, the dense stellar environments surrounding massive black holes in the centers of galaxies. We consider angular momentum diffusion du…

Elevated Rates of Tidal Disruption Events in Active Galactic Nuclei

Karamveer Kaur, Nicholas C. Stone

Advances in time domain astronomy have produced a growing population of flares from galactic nuclei, including both tidal disruption events (TDEs) and flares in active galactic nuc…

Magnetically Dominated Disks in Tidal Disruption Events and Quasi-Periodic Eruptions

Karamveer Kaur, Nicholas C. Stone, Shmuel Gilbaum

The classical radiation pressure instability has been a persistent theoretical feature of thin, radiatively efficient accretion disks with accretion rates 1 to 100 per cent of the…

The observed mass distribution of Galactic black hole LMXBs is biased against massive black holes

Peter G. Jonker, Karamveer Kaur, Nicholas Stone +1

The discovery of gravitational wave radiation from merging black holes (BHs) also uncovered BHs with masses in the range of ~20-160 Msun. In contrast, the most massive Galactic ste…
