The role of mass transfer and common envelope evolution in the formation of merging binary black holes
Pablo Marchant, Kaliroë M. W. Pappas, Monica Gallegos-Garcia +4
As the number of observed merging binary black holes (BHs) grows, accurate models are required to disentangle multiple formation channels. In models with isolated binaries, importa…

Pulsational pair-instability supernovae in very close binaries
Pablo Marchant, Mathieu Renzo, Robert Farmer +4
Pair-instability and pulsational pair-instability supernovae (PPISN) have not been unambiguously observed so far. They are, however, promising candidates for the progenitors of the…
