An Enhanced Formation Channel for Galactic Dual-Line Gravitational-Wave Sources: von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai Effect in Triples Involving Sgr A*
Wen-Fan Feng, Tan Liu, Yun Fang +3
The dense Galactic Center environment is expected to host compact binary inspirals detectable by future space-borne gravitational wave (GW) observatories (e.g., LISA, TianQin, Taij…
Model-Agnostic Population Inference for Gravitational-Wave Astronomy: From LVK to LISA
Yi-kun Li, Cheng Cheng, Lang Cui +1
Inferring the intrinsic population of compact binary mergers is complicated by detector selection biases and measurement uncertainties. Traditional parametric methods are limited b…
Probing the Merger Rates of Supermassive Black Holes and Galaxies with Gravitational Waves
Yun Fang, Rong-Gen Cai
The mergers of galaxies and supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are key drivers of galaxy evolution, contributing to the growth of both galaxies and their central black holes. Current…
Fundamental Physics Opportunities with the Next-Generation Event Horizon Telescope
Dimitry Ayzenberg, Lindy Blackburn, Richard Brito +45
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration recently published the first images of the supermassive black holes in the cores of the Messier 87 and Milky Way galaxies. These obs…
