A 13 Year Black Hole Microlensing Survey in Omega Centauri
Zack Freeman, Maximilian Häberle, Anil Seth +11
Star clusters are born with massive stars that leave behind a large population of stellar mass black holes. These black holes may account for a large fraction of binary black hole…
Identity Crisis: Untangling Mass-Ordering Artifacts from Compact-Object Pairing in Gravitational-Wave Populations
Soumendra Kishore Roy, Asad Hussain, L. A. C. van Son +3
Mass distributions of binary black hole mergers inferred from gravitational-wave observations offer clues to how binaries form. These distributions conventionally label the heavier…
When the stars don't align: Investigating inconsistencies in binary black hole formation across population synthesis codes
Alexandra G. Guerrero, Michael Zevin, Duncan B. Maclean +4
Binary population synthesis (BPS) codes are valuable tools for investigating the end-to-end lives of binary stars as well as a myriad of observed astrophysical phenomena. Many ``ra…
Twin Peaks: Resolving Features in the Binary Black Hole Mass Function with COSMIC-METISSE
Duncan B. Maclean, Poojan Agrawal, Katelyn Breivik +4
Gravitational waves from inspiraling binary black holes (BBHs) provide insights into the lives and deaths of massive stars. Population synthesis allows us to model these binaries t…
A Long Period Stellar-Mass Black Hole Binary in Centauri
Matthew Whitaker, Evan Kerr, Anil Seth +16
Modern simulations of stellar dynamics in globular clusters peg a dominant role for stellar-mass black holes, but direct evidence for black holes in clusters remains limited. We pr…
