The effect of triples on the Chemically Homogeneous Evolution Channel for producing Gravitational Wave Sources
Silvia A. Popa, Selma E. de Mink, Stephen Justham +3
Despite the growing number of gravitational-wave (GW) detections, the formation of merging binary black holes (BBHs) is still debated. One of the proposed formation channels is Che…
Mass and spin properties of black-hole mergers reveal formation in triples
Jakob Stegmann, Aleksandra Olejak
Deciphering the formation channels of the observed binary black hole mergers remains a central open problem in gravitational-wave astronomy. With hundreds of detections, the inferr…
Non-conservative Mass Transfer as a Formation Channel for Gaia Black Hole System
Aleksandra Olejak, Jakub Klencki, Alejandro Vigna-Gomez +6
The detected Gaia systems hosting compact objects challenge standard models of binary star evolution. In particular, if the observed black hole (BH) systems evolved in isolation, t…
Orbital Eccentricity and Spin-Orbit Misalignment Are Evidence that Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers Form through Triple Star Evolution
Jakob Stegmann, Jakub Klencki
There is growing evidence that a substantial fraction of the neutron star-black holes (NSBHs) detected through gravitational waves merge with non-zero eccentricity or large BH spin…
Supermassive black holes stripping a subgiant star down to its helium core: a new type of multi-messenger source for LISA
Aleksandra Olejak, Jakob Stegmann, Selma E. de Mink +3
Some stars orbiting supermassive black holes (SMBH) are expected to undergo a gravitational-wave (GW)-driven inspiral and initiate mass transfer on nearly circular orbits. However,…
