When the stars don't align: Investigating inconsistencies in binary black hole formation across population synthesis codes
Alexandra G. Guerrero, Michael Zevin, Duncan B. Maclean +4
Binary population synthesis (BPS) codes are valuable tools for investigating the end-to-end lives of binary stars as well as a myriad of observed astrophysical phenomena. Many ``ra…
Charting the Galactic Underworld I: Comprehensive simulations of the kinematics, rates, and demographics of Milky Way black holes
Tom Wagg, Katelyn Breivik, Adrian M. Price-Whelan +3
With upcoming data from Roman, Gaia DR4, and spectroscopic surveys, we will soon have an unprecedented dataset of Milky Way black holes (BHs) to constrain their formation and evolu…
A new model for the continuum spectra of AM CVn binaries and multi-messenger inference with normalizing flows
Nathan Steinle, Samar Safi-Harb, Austin MacMaster +5
Future electromagnetic telescopes, such as , , and an -like mission, along with milli-Hz gravitational-wave (GW) detectors such…
LISA's view of the Galactic Halo: forecasts for the Galactic double white dwarf population using Gaia data
Ann-Marsha Alexis, Katelyn Breivik
The population of close double white dwarfs (DWDs) in the Milky Way will make up the largest population of sources resolved by LISA, with a subset of the population having three-di…
Twin Peaks: Resolving Features in the Binary Black Hole Mass Function with COSMIC-METISSE
Duncan B. Maclean, Poojan Agrawal, Katelyn Breivik +4
Gravitational waves from inspiraling binary black holes (BBHs) provide insights into the lives and deaths of massive stars. Population synthesis allows us to model these binaries t…
Unraveling the Origin of Unequal Mass Gravitational Wave Events: Insights from a Galactic High Mass X-ray Binary
Neev Shah, Mathieu Renzo, Koushik Sen +2
The catalog of Gravitational Wave (GW) events is rapidly growing, providing key insights into the evolution of massive binaries and compact object formation. However, a key challen…
