Single-event likelihood of star cluster properties with LIGO-Virgo-Kagra binary black hole observations
Ken K. Y. Ng, Konstantinos Kritos, Andrea Antonelli +2
The population of binary black hole mergers observed in gravitational waves, together with astrophysical simulations, can help us to understand the properties of the progenitors an…
Classifying the generation and formation channels of individual LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observations from dynamically formed binaries
Andrea Antonelli, Konstantinos Kritos, Ken K. Y. Ng +2
We address two important questions in gravitational-wave astronomy. What is the astrophysical formation scenario leading to black-hole binary mergers? Did some of the merging black…
The TeV Sun Rises: Discovery of Gamma rays from the Quiescent Sun with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +89
We report the first detection of a TeV gamma-ray flux from the solar disk (6.3), based on 6.1 years of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The 0.5--2…
Anisotropic Photon and Electron Scattering without Ultrarelativistic Approximation
Anderson C. M. Lai, Kenny C. Y. Ng
Interactions between photons and electrons are ubiquitous in astrophysics. Photons can be down scattered (Compton scattering) or up scattered (inverse Compton scattering) by moving…
Towards detecting super-GeV dark matter via annihilation to neutrinos
L. Salvador Miranda, S. Basegmez du Pree, K. C. Y. Ng +2
The next generation of neutrino telescopes will feature unprecedented sensitivities in the detection of neutrinos. Here we study the capabilities of a large-scale neutrino telescop…
Measuring properties of primordial black hole mergers at cosmological distances: effect of higher order modes in gravitational waves
Ken K. Y. Ng, Boris Goncharov, Shiqi Chen +9
Primordial black holes (PBHs) may form from the collapse of matter overdensities shortly after the Big Bang. One may identify their existence by observing gravitational wave (GW) e…
