Triple-induced mergers of black hole binaries: A comprehensive look at the role of stellar evolution, dynamical stability, and spin evolution

C. W. Bruenech, S. Toonen, T. Boekholt +1

Mergers of black holes (BHs) have been shown to be a ubiquitous phenomenon in the Universe. However, uncertainties remain in our theoretical understanding of the evolution of the B…

Prompt stellar and binary black hole mergers in tight triples: Insights from chemically homogeneous evolution

Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Evgeni Grishin, Jakob Stegmann +7

Short-period massive binary stars are predicted to undergo chemically homogeneous evolution (CHE), making them prime candidates for producing binary black holes (BBHs) that may mer…

BH-BH mergers with & without EM counterpart: A model for stable tertiary mass transfer in hierarchical triple systems

F. Kummer, S. Toonen, A. Dorozsmai +2

Triple stars are prevalent within the population of observed stars. Their evolution, compared to binaries, is notably more complex, influenced by unique dynamical, tidal, and mass…

Stellar triples with chemically homogeneously evolving inner binaries

Andris Dorozsmai, Silvia Toonen, Alejandro Vigna-Gómez +2

Observations suggest that massive stellar triples are common. However, their evolution is not yet fully understood. We investigate the evolution of hierarchical triples in which th…

Importance of stable mass transfer and stellar winds for the formation of gravitational wave sources

Andris Dorozsmai, Silvia Toonen

The large number of gravitational wave (GW) detections have revealed the properties of the merging black hole binary population, but how such systems are formed is still heavily de…
