Observational limits on the rate of radiation-driven binary black hole capture events

Michael Ebersold, Shubhanshu Tiwari, Leigh Smith +6

Dense astrophysical environments like globular clusters and galactic nuclei can host hyperbolic encounters of black holes which can lead to gravitational-wave driven capture. There…

Mimicking Mergers: Mistaking Black Hole Captures as Mergers

Weichangfeng Guo, Daniel Williams, Ik Siong Heng +4

As the number of gravitational wave observations has increased in recent years, the variety of sources has broadened. Here we investigate whether it is possible for the current gen…

Gravitational Wave Capture in Spinning Black Hole Encounters

Yeong-Bok Bae, Hyung Mok Lee, Gungwon Kang

The orbits of two black holes which are initially unbound can be transformed into bound orbits by emitting gravitational waves during close encounters in a star cluster, which is c…

Gravitational radiation driven capture in unequal mass black hole encounters

Yeong-Bok Bae, Hyung Mok Lee, Gungwon Kang +1

The gravitational radiation driven capture (GR capture) between unequal mass black holes without spins has been investigated with numerical relativistic simulations. We adopt the p…

Equation of State in the Presence of Gravity

Hyeong-Chan Kim, Gungwon Kang

We investigate how an equation of state for matter is affected when a gravity is present. For this purpose, we consider a box of ideal gas in the presence of Newtonian gravity. In…

String or branelike solutions in four-dimensional Einstein gravity in the presence of cosmological constant

Youngone Lee, Gungwon Kang, Hyeong-Chan Kim +1

We investigate string or branelike solutions for four-dimensional vacuum Einstein equations in the presence of cosmological constant. For the case of negative cosmological constant…
