Prior volume effect inflates the gravitational-wave background in pulsar timing arrays
Biwei Dai, Matias Zaldarriaga, Yacine Ali-Ha\"ımoud
Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) have found evidence for a nanohertz gravitational-wave background (GWB) whose amplitude exceeds most predictions based on supermassive black hole binari…
Orbital eccentricities in primordial black holes binaries
Ilias Cholis, Ely D. Kovetz, Yacine Ali-Haïmoud +4
It was recently suggested that the merger of primordial black holes (PBHs) may provide a significant number of events in gravitational-wave observatories over the…
Flaring of tidally compressed dark-matter clumps
Yacine Ali-Haïmoud, Ely D. Kovetz, Joseph Silk
We explore the physics and observational consequences of tidal compression events (TCEs) of dark-matter clumps (DMCs) by supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Our analytic calculations…
