Emulating the complex galactic-scale orbital dynamics of LISA massive black hole pairs with normalizing flows

Pedro R. Capelo, Carlos Moreno Martinez, Nodens Koren +6

Massive black hole (MBH) pairs, formed in galaxy mergers, may coalesce in a burst of gravitational waves. Estimating the coalescence time-scales and rates is a long-standing astrop…

Unveiling the properties of galaxy cores excavated by supermassive black hole binaries with SHARP

E. Bortolas, E. Portaluri, E. Dalla Bonta' +3

Massive black hole (MBH) binaries form as a result of galaxy mergers and can coalesce into a single MBH by emitting gravitational waves detectable by LISA and pulsar timing array c…

A new era for Dual AGN science with SHARP

P. Severgnini, C. Vignali, A. De Rosa +21

The search for and the characterization of ultra-compact dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) are among the hottest topics of current extragalactic astrophysics. These systems involve…

The LISA Astrophysics MBHcatalogues Project: A comparison of predictions of simulated massive black hole binaries

David Izquierdo-Villalba, Melanie Habouzit, Matteo Bonetti +67

In the hierarchical paradigm of galaxy formation, central massive black holes (MBHs) are expected to coalesce after the merger of their host galaxies. One of the main goals of the…

Realistic consecutive galaxy mergers form eccentric PTA sources

Federica Fastidio, Elisa Bortolas, Alessia Gualandris +3

Results from pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) show evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) consistent with a population of unresolved supermassive black hole binaries (BHBs).…

An effective model for the tidal disruption of satellites undergoing minor mergers with axisymmetric primaries

Ludovica Varisco, Massimo Dotti, Matteo Bonetti +2

According to the hierarchical formation paradigm, galaxies form through mergers of smaller entities and massive black holes (MBHs), if lurking at their centers, migrate to the nucl…
