Impact of ringdown higher-order modes on black-hole mergers in dense environments: the scalar field case, detectability and parameter biases

Samson H. W. Leong, Juan Calderón Bustillo, Miguel Gracia-Linares +1

Dense environments hosting compact binary mergers can leave an imprint on the gravitational-wave emission which, in turn, can be used to identify the characteristics of the environ…

Gravitational recoil from binary black hole mergers in scalar field clouds

Yu-Peng Zhang, Miguel Gracia-Linares, Pablo Laguna +2

In vacuum, the gravitational recoil of the final black hole from the merger of two black holes depends exclusively on the mass ratio and spins of the coalescing black holes, and on…
