MESA-QUEST: Tracing the formation of direct collapse black hole seeds via quasi-stars
Andrew D. Santarelli, Claire B. Campbell, Ebraheem Farag +3
The origin of the first supermassive black holes (SMBHs) observed at redshifts remains one of the most challenging open questions in astrophysics. Their rapid emergence s…
Photons from neutrinos: the gamma ray echo of a supernova neutrino burst
Cecilia Lunardini, Joshua Loeffler, Mainak Mukhopadhyay +3
When a star undergoes core collapse, a vast amount of energy is released in a ~10 s long burst of neutrinos of all species. Inverse beta decay in the star's hydrogen envelope cause…
Resolving The Peak Of The Black Hole Mass Spectrum
Ebraheem Farag, Mathieu Renzo, Robert Farmer +2
Gravitational wave (GW) detections of binary black hole (BH) mergers have begun to sample the cosmic BH mass distribution. The evolution of single stellar cores predicts a gap in t…
