Was GW190412 born from a hierarchical 3+1 quadruple configuration?

Adrian S. Hamers, Mohammadtaher Safarzadeh

The gravitational wave source GW190412 is a binary black hole (BBH) merger with three unique properties: i) its mass ratio is about 0.28, the lowest found so far, ii) it has a rela…

Secular dynamics of hierarchical multiple systems composed of nested binaries, with an arbitrary number of bodies and arbitrary hierarchical structure. III. Suborbital effects: hybrid integration techniques and orbit-averaging corrections

Adrian S. Hamers

The SecularMultiple code, presented in two previous papers of this series, integrates the long-term dynamical evolution of multiple systems with any number of bodies and hierarchic…

The evolution of stellar triples: The most common evolutionary pathways

S. Toonen, S. Portegies Zwart, A. Hamers +1

Many stars do not live alone, but instead have one or more stellar companions. Observations show that these binaries, triples and higher-order multiples are common. Whereas the evo…

Binary-binary scattering in the secular limit

Adrian S. Hamers, Johan Samsing

Binary-binary interactions are important in a number of astrophysical contexts including dense stellar systems such as globular clusters. Although less frequent than binary-single…

A census of main-sequence interactions in the Multiple Star Catalog

Adrian S. Hamers

Statistics of hierarchical systems containing three or more stars are continuously improving. The Multiple Star Catalog (MSC) is currently the most comprehensive catalogue of multi…

Hot Jupiters driven by high-eccentricity migration in globular clusters

Adrian S. Hamers, Scott Tremaine

Hot Jupiters (HJs) are short-period giant planets that are observed around ~ 1% of solar-type field stars. One possible formation scenario for HJs is high-eccentricity (high-e) mig…
