Dynamical formation of dormant black holes: Predictions for Gaia DR4

Daniel Marín Pina, Michela Mapelli, Giuliano Iorio +1

Dormant black holes (dormant BHs, i.e., X-ray quiet binaries comprising a BH and a companion star) are probes of the effect of cluster dynamics and binary stellar evolution on comp…

Fast Dynamical Modelling of Milky Way Globular Clusters -- II. Impacts of Black Hole Prescriptions

Nolan Dickson, Vincent Hénault-Brunet, Fotios Fronimos Pouliasis +3

The populations of stellar-mass black holes (BHs) in globular clusters (GCs) play a key role in their dynamical evolution, however the mechanisms surrounding their formation and re…

cBHBd: A fast code for the evolution of tidally limited star clusters and their binary black hole mergers

Fotios Fronimos Pouliasis, Nolan Dickson, Daniel Marín Pina +3

The evolution of star clusters is driven by stellar mass loss, two-body relaxation, and evaporation in the Galactic tidal field. Fast modeling tools are crucial for exploring diver…

-body modelling of the ED-2 stream progenitor shows Gaia BH3's formation involved dynamical interactions

Daniel Marín Pina, Mark Gieles, Sara Rastello +3

Context. The Gaia collaboration announced the discovery of a binary of a massive black hole (33 M) with a low-mass giant star (Gaia BH3) in the ED-2 stellar stream. The pro…

The formation of Gaia BH3

Daniel Marín Pina, Mark Gieles, Sara Rastello +1

The Gaia collaboration announced the discovery of a massive black hole (BH) with a low-mass giant star companion, Gaia BH3, located in the ED-2 stellar stream. The properties of Ga…

Interactions among binary black holes in star clusters: Eccentric gravitational wave captures and triple formation

Daniel Marín Pina, Mark Gieles, Tomas Andrade +1

Numerical simulations of star clusters with black holes find that there is only a single dynamically active binary black hole (BBH), at odds with the theoretical expectation of ~5…

Binary-single interactions with different mass ratios

Bruno Rando Forastier, Daniel Marín Pina, Mark Gieles +2

Dynamical interactions in star clusters are an efficient mechanism to produce the coalescing binary black holes (BBHs) that have been detected with gravitational waves (GWs). We wa…

Dynamical formation of Gaia BH3 in the progenitor globular cluster of the ED-2 stream

Daniel Marín Pina, Sara Rastello, Mark Gieles +3

Context. The star-black hole (S-BH) binary known as Gaia BH3, discovered by the Gaia Collaboration is chemically and kinematically associated with the metal-poor ED-2 stream in the…

Demographics of three-body binary black holes in star clusters: implications for gravitational waves

Daniel Marín Pina, Mark Gieles

To explain both the dynamics of a globular cluster and its production of gravitational waves from coalescing binary black holes, it is necessary to understand its population of dyn…
