Assembling GW231123 in star clusters through the combination of stellar binary evolution and hierarchical mergers
Lavinia Paiella, Cristiano Ugolini, Mario Spera +2
GW231123 is the most massive binary black hole (BBH) merger detected to date by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration. With at least one black hole (BH) in the upper-mass gap and both…
The Dragon-II simulations -- II. Formation mechanisms, mass, and spin of intermediate-mass black holes in star clusters with up to 1 million stars
Manuel Arca Sedda, Albrecht W. H. Kamlah, Rainer Spurzem +4
The processes that govern the formation of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) in dense stellar clusters are still unclear. Here, we discuss the role of stellar mergers, star-BH…
The Effect of Mission Duration on LISA Science Objectives
Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda, Stanislav Babak +38
The science objectives of the LISA mission have been defined under the implicit assumption of a 4 yr continuous data stream. Based on the performance of LISA Pathfinder, it is now…
On the eccentricity evolution of massive black hole binaries in stellar backgrounds
Matteo Bonetti, Alexander Rasskazov, Alberto Sesana +6
We study the dynamical evolution of eccentric massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) interacting with unbound stars by means of an extensive set of three body scattering experiments.…
