No evidence for a supermassive black hole binary in GSN 069
Yuhe Zeng, Zhen Pan, Bin Liu +1
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are recurrent soft X-ray flares from galactic nuclei and provide a new time-domain probe of stellar-mass objects (SMOs) orbiting supermassive black…
Population statistics of nanohertz gravitational wave sources
Jiming Yu, Zhen Pan, Xiao Xue +1
The recent detection of a nanohertz gravitational wave (GW) background by pulsar timing arrays (PTA) has sparked extensive discussions regarding its origin-whether it arises from a…
Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals in Light of Quasi-periodic Eruptions: Milli-Hertz Gravitational Wave Background
Brennen Black, Xian Chen, Zhen Pan
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are repeated X-ray bursts originating in galactic nuclei. Of the many proposed models, the favored model is the disk-collision model in which a stel…
Captured are circularized: A relativistic treatment of extreme mass ratio inspirals crossing accretion disks
Yuhe Zeng, Zhen Pan
A small body orbiting around an accreting massive object and periodically crossing its accretion disk is a common configuration in astrophysics. In this work, we investigate the se…
Secondary spins of extreme mass ratio inspirals: A probe to the formation channels
Qiuxin Cui, Wen-Biao Han, Zhen Pan
Extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs), consisting of a secondary (stellar mass) black hole (BH) orbiting around a supermassive BH, are one of the primary targets for future spacebor…
Secular evolution of quasi-periodic eruptions
Cong Zhou, Yuhe Zeng, Zhen Pan
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are intense repeating soft X-ray bursts with recurrence times about a few hours to a few weeks from galactic nuclei. More and more analyses show tha…
Non-Gaussian Statistics of Nanohertz Stochastic Gravitational Waves
Xiao Xue, Zhen Pan, Liang Dai
Recent detection of nHz stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) by multiple pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) has stimulated intensive discussions about its physical origin. In p…
Probing orbits of stellar mass objects deep in galactic nuclei with quasi-periodic eruptions -- II: population analysis
Cong Zhou, Binyu Zhong, Yuhe Zeng +2
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are intense repeating soft X-ray bursts with recurrence times about a few hours to a few weeks from galactic nuclei. Though the debates on the origi…
Improving the detection sensitivity to primordial stochastic gravitational waves with reduced astrophysical foregrounds. II. Subthreshold binary neutron stars
Mingzheng Li, Jiming Yu, Zhen Pan
Stochastic gravitational waves (GWs) consist of a primordial component from early Universe processes and an astrophysical component from compact binary mergers. To detect the primo…
Probing orbits of stellar mass objects deep in galactic nuclei with quasi-periodic eruptions
Cong Zhou, Lei Huang, Kangrou Guo +2
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are intense repeating soft X-ray bursts with recurrence times about a few to ten hours from nearby galactic nuclei. The origin of QPEs is still uncl…
