Population synthesis predictions of the Galactic compact binary gravitational wave foreground detectable by LISA

Jake McMillan, Adam Ingram, Cordelia Dashwood Brown +4

We use population synthesis modelling to predict the gravitational wave (GW) signal that the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will detect from the Galactic population of c…

A comprehensive search for high-velocity X-ray sources: New compact object binary candidates in the Gaia era

Yue Zhao, Poshak Gandhi, Christian Knigge +6

We perform a comprehensive search for high-velocity X-ray sources with large X-ray/optical flux ratios (), identifying candidates for interacting black h…

Infrared Synchrotron Emission in the Soft State of GX 339-4 and the Mid-Infrared/X-ray Luminosity Plane of Black Hole X-ray Binaries

P. Gandhi, D. M. Russell, M. C. Baglio +33

Progress in understanding the growth of accreting black holes remains hampered by a lack of sensitive coordinated multiwavelength observations. In particular, the mid-infrared (MIR…

Further evidence for natal kick segregation by spectral type in high-mass X-ray binaries

Pornisara Nuchvanichakul, Poshak Gandhi, Christian Knigge +4

High-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) are systems in which a neutron star or black hole accretes material from a massive companion. HMXBs are expected to have experienced a supernova in…

On the natal kick of the black hole X-ray binary H 1705--250

Cordelia Dashwood Brown, Poshak Gandhi, Yue Zhao

When a compact object is formed, an impulse (kick) will be imparted to the system by the mass lost during the core-collapse supernova (SN). A number of other mechanisms may impart…

Evidence for mass-dependent peculiar velocities in compact object binaries: Towards better constraints on natal kicks

Yue Zhao, Poshak Gandhi, Cordelia Dashwood Brown +4

We compile a catalogue of low-mass and high-mass X-ray binaries, some recently reported binaries that likely host a neutron star (NS) or a black hole (BH), and binary pulsars (a pu…

New Compact Object Binary Populations with Precision Astrometry (Roman White Paper)

P. Gandhi, C. Dashwood Brown, Y. Zhao +6

Compact object binaries (a black hole or a neutron star orbiting a non-degenerate stellar companion) are key to our understanding of late massive star evolution, in addition to bei…

Measuring interacting binary mass functions with X-ray fluorescence

Cordelia Dashwood Brown, Poshak Gandhi, Phil Charles

The masses of compact objects in X-ray binaries are best constrained through dynamical measurements, relying on radial velocity curves of the companion star. In anticipation of upc…
