Hunting Black Holes with Gaia

Natalie Mashian, Abraham Loeb

We predict the number of black holes with stellar companions that are potentially detectable with Gaia astrometry over the course of its five-year mission. Our model estimates that…

CEMP stars: possible hosts to carbon planets in the early universe

Natalie Mashian, Abraham Loeb

We explore the possibility of planet formation in the carbon-rich protoplanetary disks of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars, possible relics of the early Universe. The chemic…

Spectral Distortion of the CMB by the Cumulative CO Emission from Galaxies throughout Cosmic History

Natalie Mashian, Abraham Loeb, Amiel Sternberg

We show that the cumulative CO emission from galaxies throughout cosmic history distorts the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at a level that is well above the det…

Predicting the intensity mapping signal for multi- CO lines

Natalie Mashian, Amiel Sternberg, Abraham Loeb

We present a novel approach to estimating the intensity mapping signal of any CO rotational line emitted during the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). Our approach is based on large velo…

An Empirical Model for the Galaxy Luminosity and Star-Formation Rate Function at High Redshift

Natalie Mashian, Pascal Oesch, Abraham Loeb

Using the most recent measurements of the ultraviolet (UV) luminosity functions (LFs) and dust estimates of early galaxies, we derive updated dust-corrected star-formation rate fun…

Constraining the Minimum Luminosity of High Redshift Galaxies through Gravitational Lensing

Natalie Mashian, Abraham Loeb

We simulate the effects of gravitational lensing on the source count of high redshift galaxies as projected to be observed by the Hubble Frontier Fields program and the James Webb…

The Ratio of CO to Total Gas Mass in High Redshift Galaxies

Natalie Mashian, Amiel Sternberg, Abraham Loeb

Walter et al. (20012) have recently identified the J=6-5, 5-4, and 2-1 CO rotational emission lines, and [C_{II}] fine-structure emission line from the star-forming interstellar me…
