On the resonant detonation of sub-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs during binary inspiral
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford
White dwarfs (WDs) are believed to detonate via explosive Carbon-fusion in a Type Ia Supernova when their temperature and/or density reach the point where Carbon is ignited in a ru…

Stars as resonant absorbers of gravitational waves
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford, B. Kocsis +1
Quadrupole oscillation modes in stars can resonate with incident gravitational waves (GWs), and grow non-linear at the expense of GW energy. Stars near massive black hole binaries…

Intermediate mass black holes in AGN disks II. Model predictions & observational constraints
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford, B. Kocsis +2
If intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) grow efficiently in gas disks around supermassive black holes, their host active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks should exhibit myriad observa…
