AGN flares as counterparts to LIGO/Virgo mergers: No confident causal connection in spatial correlation analysis
Niccolò Veronesi, Sjoert van Velzen, Elena Maria Rossi
The primary formation channel for the stellar-mass Binary Black Holes which have been detected merging by the LIGO-Virgo- KAGRA (LVK) collaboration is yet to be discerned. One of t…

Constraining the AGN formation channel for detected black hole binary mergers up to z=1.5 with the Quaia catalogue
Niccolò Veronesi, Sjoert van Velzen, Elena Maria Rossi +1
Statistical analyses based on the spatial correlation between the sky maps of Gravitational Wave (GW) events and the positions of potential host environments are a powerful tool to…
