The more accurately the metal-dependent star formation rate is modeled, the larger the predicted excess of binary black hole mergers
Cecilia Sgalletta, Michela Mapelli, Lumen Boco +5
As the number of gravitational-wave detections grows, the merger rate of binary black holes (BBHs) can help us to constrain their formation, the properties of their progenitors, an…
Constraining the Initial-Mass Function via Stellar Transients
Francesco Gabrielli, Lumen Boco, Giancarlo Ghirlanda +4
The stellar initial-mass function (IMF) represents a fundamental quantity in astrophysics and cosmology, describing the mass distribution of stars from low to very-high masses. It…
The cosmic rate of Pair-Instability Supernovae
Francesco Gabrielli, Andrea Lapi, Lumen Boco +8
Pair-instability supernovae (PISNe) have crucial implications for many astrophysical topics, including the search for very massive stars, the black hole mass spectrum, and galaxy c…
The boring history of Gaia BH3 from isolated binary evolution
Giuliano Iorio, Stefano Torniamenti, Michela Mapelli +15
Gaia BH3 is the first observed dormant black hole (BH) with a mass of M and represents the first confirmation that such massive BHs are associated with metal-…
