Tidal Disruptions of Stars by Binary Black Holes: Modifying the Spin Magnitudes and Directions of LIGO Sources in Dense Stellar Environments
Martin Lopez, Aldo Batta, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +2
Binary black holes (BBHs) appear to be widespread and are able to merge through the emission of gravitational waves, as recently illustrated by LIGO. The spin of the BBHs is one of…

Black Hole Formation in Fallback Supernova and the Spins of LIGO Sources
Sophie L. Schrøder, Aldo Batta, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz
Here we investigate within the context of field binary progenitors how the the spin of LIGO sources vary when the helium star-descendent black hole (BH) is formed in a failed super…
