Planets in Globular Clusters?
Steinn Sigurdsson
The discovery of planets around PSR~1257+12 suggests that planetary systems may be detected around the recycled pulsars found in globular clusters. Planetary systems in dense clust…
Contaminating Electromagnetic Transients in LISA Gravitational Wave Localization Volumes. I: The Intrinsic Rates
Weixiang Yu, John J. Ruan, Michael Eracleous +8
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will soon detect gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by massive black hole (MBH) mergers. Some theoretical models have predicted transie…
A framework for improving the accessibility of research papers on arXiv.org
Shamsi Brinn, Christopher Cameron, David Fielding +9
The research content hosted by arXiv is not fully accessible to everyone due to disabilities and other barriers. This matters because a significant proportion of people have readin…
The Search for Binary Supermassive Black Holes Amongst Quasars with Offset Broad Lines Using the Very Long Baseline Array
Peter Breiding, Sarah Burke-Spolaor, Michael Eracleous +4
In several previous studies, quasars exhibiting broad emission lines with >1000 km/s velocity offsets with respect to the host galaxy rest frame have been discovered. One leading h…
QUOTAS: A new research platform for the data-driven investigation of black holes
Priyamvada Natarajan, Kwok Sun Tang, Robert McGibbon +7
We present QUOTAS, a novel research platform for the data-driven investigation of super-massive black hole (SMBH) populations. While SMBH data sets -- observations and simulations…
Pulsar Timing Array Constraints on the Merger Timescale of Subparsec Supermassive Black Hole Binary Candidates
Khai Nguyen, Tamara Bogdanovic, Jessie C. Runnoe +4
We estimate the merger timescale of spectroscopically-selected, subparsec supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) candidates by comparing their expected contribution to the gravitat…
