Probing AGN jet precession with LISA

Nathan Steinle, Davide Gerosa, Martin G. H. Krause

The precession of astrophysical jets produced by active-galactic nuclei is likely related to the dynamics of the accretion disks surrounding the central supermassive black holes (B…

Implications of pulsar timing array observations for LISA detections of massive black hole binaries

Nathan Steinle, Hannah Middleton, Christopher J. Moore +6

Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) and the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will open complementary observational windows on massive black-hole binaries (MBHBs), i.e., with masse…

The Bardeen-Petterson effect, disk breaking, and the spin orientations of supermassive black-hole binaries

Nathan Steinle, Davide Gerosa

Supermassive black-hole binaries are driven to merger by dynamical friction, loss-cone scattering of individual stars, disk migration, and gravitational-wave emission. Two main for…

Mechanisms for high spin in black-hole neutron-star binaries and kilonova emission: inheritance and accretion

Nathan Steinle, Benjamin P. Gompertz, Matt Nicholl

A black-hole neutron-star binary merger can lead to an electromagnetic counterpart called a kilonova if the neutron star is disrupted prior to merger. The observability of a kilono…

Signatures of spin precession and nutation in isolated black-hole binaries

Nathan Steinle, Michael Kesden

The spin precession of binary black holes (BBHs) that originate from isolated high-mass binary stars is determined by the interplay of phenomena such as tides, winds, accretion, co…

Which black hole formed first? Mass-ratio reversal in massive binary stars from gravitational-wave data

Matthew Mould, Davide Gerosa, Floor S. Broekgaarden +1

Population inference of gravitational-wave catalogues is a useful tool to translate observations of black-hole mergers into constraints on compact-binary formation. Different forma…

Pathways for producing binary black holes with large misaligned spins in the isolated formation channel

Nathan Steinle, Michael Kesden

Binary black holes (BBHs) can form from the collapsed cores of isolated high-mass binary stars. The masses and spins of these BBHs are determined by the complicated interplay of ph…
