Dynamical Formation of the GW150914 Binary Black Hole
Carl L. Rodriguez, Carl-Johan Haster, Sourav Chatterjee +2
We explore the possibility that GW150914, the binary black hole merger recently detected by Advanced LIGO, was formed by gravitational interactions in the core of a dense star clus…
Radio Wave Propagation and the Provenance of Fast Radio Bursts
J. M. Cordes, R. S. Wharton, L. G. Spitler +2
We analyze plasma dispersion and scattering of fast radio bursts (FRBs) to identify the dominant locations of free electrons along their lines of sight and thus constrain the dista…
Binary Black Hole Mergers from Globular Clusters: Masses, Merger Rates, and the Impact of Stellar Evolution
Carl L. Rodriguez, Sourav Chatterjee, Frederic A. Rasio
The recent discovery of GW150914, the binary black hole merger detected by Advanced LIGO, has the potential to revolutionize observational astrophysics. But to fully utilize this n…
