A concordance model of neutron star kicks

Cheyanne Shariat, Kareem El-Badry, Smadar Naoz

Neutron stars (NSs) receive natal kicks during supernovae that affect their survival in binaries and motion through the Galaxy. The global distribution of these kick velocities acr…

Eccentric Stellar-mass Binary Black Holes: Population, Detectability, and Waveform Analysis in the LISA and LIGO Era

Zeyuan Xuan, Smadar Naoz, Kyle Kremer +3

Eccentric binary black holes (BBHs) formed through dynamical interactions can significantly contribute to gravitational wave (GW) detections. In this work, we present a simulated c…

Fast Radio Bursts from White Dwarf Binary Mergers: Isolated and Triple-Induced Channels

Cheyanne Shariat, Claire S. Ye, Smadar Naoz +1

The detection of fast radio bursts (FRBs) in both young and old stellar populations suggests multiple formation pathways, beyond just young magnetars from core-collapse supernovae.…

Triples as Links between Binary Black Hole Mergers, their Electromagnetic Counterparts, and Galactic Black Holes

Smadar Naoz, Zoltan Haiman, Eliot Quataert +1

We propose a formation pathway linking black holes (BHs) observed in gravitational-wave (GW) mergers, wide BH-stellar systems uncovered by Gaia, and accreting low-mass X-ray binari…

From Wide Triples to UCXBs: Multimessenger Signatures of Dynamically-formed Black Hole-White Dwarf Systems in the LISA Band

Zeyuan Xuan, Cheyanne Shariat, Smadar Naoz

Ultracompact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) are a subclass of low-mass X-ray binaries characterized by tight orbits and degenerate donors, which pose significant challenges to our understa…

Localizing Dynamically-Formed Black Hole Binaries in Milky Way Globular Clusters with LISA

Zeyuan Xuan, Kyle Kremer, Smadar Naoz

The dynamical formation of binary black holes (BBHs) in globular clusters (GCs) may contribute significantly to the observed gravitational wave (GW) merger rate. Furthermore, LISA…
