The Multiple Paths to Merger of Unequal-Mass Black Hole Binaries in the Disks of Active Galactic Nuclei
Alexander J. Dittmann, Adam M. Dempsey, Hui Li
The accretion disks that power active galactic nuclei (AGN) are thought to house populations of stars and compact objects; after forming binaries these compact objects may merge, b…

Estimating the Lensing Probability for Binary Black Hole Mergers in AGN disk by Using Mismatch Threshold
Wen-Long Xu, Yu-Zhe Li, Yi-Gu Chen +2
Stellar-mass binary black holes (BBH) may form, evolve, and merge within the dense environments of active galactic nuclei (AGN) disks, thereby contributing to the BBH population de…
