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…
Repopulating the pair-instability mass gap without sustained growth to massive IMBHs: the case of 47\,Tuc
Debatri Chattopadhyay, Daniel Marín Pina, Mark Gieles +2
We model the formation and retention of the most massive black hole (BH) in 47~Tuc using the semi-analytical code \texttt{cBHBd}, coupling cluster evolution with binary BH dynamics…
-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 role of accretion efficiency, natal kicks, and angular momentum transport in the formation of the Gaia black holes
Michela Mapelli, Cecilia Sgalletta, Johanna Müller-Horn +5
Gaia has the potential to deliver several tens of new dormant black holes (BHs) with low-mass stellar companions (hereafter, Gaia BHs) in the upcoming fourth data release. Three Ga…
