Disk draining in LIGO progenitor black hole binaries and its significance to electromagnetic counterparts
Xiaoshan Huang, Sierra Dodd, Sophie Lund Schrøder +2
The effect of tidal forces on transport within a relic accretion disk in binary black holes is studied here with a suite of two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations. As the binary…
The Young Supernova Experiment Data Release 1 (YSE DR1): Light Curves and Photometric Classification of 1975 Supernovae
P. D. Aleo, K. Malanchev, S. Sharief +80
We present the Young Supernova Experiment Data Release 1 (YSE DR1), comprised of processed multi-color Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) griz and Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) gr photometry of 1…
The Evolution of Binaries under the Influence of Radiation-Driven Winds from a Stellar Companion
Sophie Lund Schrøder, Morgan MacLeod, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +4
Interacting binaries are of general interest as laboratories for investigating the physics of accretion, which gives rise to the bulk of high-energy radiation in the Galaxy. They a…
Fallback supernova assembly of heavy binary neutron stars and light black hole-neutron star pairs and the common stellar ancestry of GW190425 and GW200115
Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Sophie L. Schrøder, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +4
The detection of the unusually heavy binary neutron star merger GW190425 marked a stark contrast to the mass distribution from known Galactic pulsars in double neutron star binarie…
The hydrodynamic evolution of binary black holes embedded within the vertically stratified disks of active galactic nuclei
Nicholas Kaaz, Sophie Lund Schrøder, Jeff J. Andrews +2
Stellar-mass black holes can become embedded within the gaseous disks of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Afterwards, their interactions are mediated by their gaseous surroundings. I…
Successful Common Envelope Ejection and Binary Neutron Star Formation in 3D Hydrodynamics
Jamie A. P. Law-Smith, Rosa Wallace Everson, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +10
A binary neutron star merger has been observed in a multi-messenger detection of gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) radiation. Binary neutron stars that merge within…
The Young Supernova Experiment: Survey Goals, Overview, and Operations
D. O. Jones, R. J. Foley, G. Narayan +68
Time domain science has undergone a revolution over the past decade, with tens of thousands of new supernovae (SNe) discovered each year. However, several observational domains, in…
Explosions Driven by the Coalescence of a Compact Object with the Core of a Massive-Star Companion Inside a Common Envelope: Circumstellar Properties, Light Curves, and Population Statistics
Sophie Lund Schrøder, Morgan MacLeod, Abraham Loeb +2
We model explosions driven by the coalescence of a black hole or neutron star with the core of its massive-star companion. Upon entering a common envelope phase, a compact object m…
Did GW170817 harbor a pulsar?
Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Jeff J. Andrews, Sophie L. Schrøder
If the progenitor of GW170817 harbored a pulsar, then a Poynting flux dominated bow-shock cavity would have been expected to form around the traveling binary. The characteristic si…
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…
The Distance to NGC 4993: The Host Galaxy of the Gravitational-wave Event GW170817
Jens Hjorth, Andrew J. Levan, Nial R. Tanvir +6
The historic detection of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger (GW170817) and its electromagnetic counterpart led to the first accurate (sub-arcsecond) localizatio…
