Constraints on relic magnetic black holes

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We present current direct and astrophysical limits on the cosmological abundance of black holes with extremal magnetic charge. Such black holes do not Hawking radiate, allowing those normally too light to survive to the present to do so.

Radio Emission from an Ultraluminous X-Ray Source [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The physical nature of ultraluminous x-ray sources is uncertain. Stellar mass black holes with beamed radiation and intermediate mass black holes with isotropic radiation are two plausible explanations.

Emission lines from tidally disrupted white dwarfs and other evolved stars

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
When a black hole tidally disrupts a star, accretion of the debris will produce a luminous flare and reveal the presence of a dormant black hole. The accretion flare can also photoionize a portion of the post-disruption debris.

Gas heating from spinning and non-spinning evaporating primordial black holes

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2021
Primordial black holes (PBHs) from the early Universe constitute a viable dark matter (DM) candidate and can span many orders of magnitude in mass. Light PBHs with masses around 1015 g contribute to DM and will efficiently evaporate through Hawking ...

Wandering Black Holes in Bright Disk Galaxy Halos

open access: yes, 2010
We perform SPH+N-body cosmological simulations of massive disk galaxies, including a formalism for black hole seed formation and growth, and find that satellite galaxies containing supermassive black hole seeds are often stripped as they merge with the ...

Low-mass Galaxy Interactions Trigger Black Hole Activity

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The existence of high- z overmassive supermassive black holes represents a major conundrum in our understanding of black hole evolution. In this Letter, we probe from the observational point of view how early Universe environmental conditions could have ...

Counting Black Holes: The Cosmic Stellar Remnant Population and Implications for LIGO

open access: yes, 2017
We present an empirical approach for interpreting gravitational wave signals of binary black hole mergers under the assumption that the underlying black hole population is sourced by remnants of stellar evolution.

Merging White Dwarf/Black Hole Binaries and Gamma-Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The merger of compact binaries, especially black holes and neutron stars, is frequently invoked to explain gamma-ray bursts (GRB's). In this paper, we present three dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of the relatively neglected mergers of white ...

Mesoporous Carbon Thin Films with Large Mesopores as Model Material for Electrochemical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoporous carbon thin films possessing 70 nm mesopores are prepared on titanium substrates by soft templating of resol resins with a self‐synthesized poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(hexyl acrylate) block copolymer. A strategy to avoid corrosion of the metal substrate is presented, and the films are extensively characterized in terms of morphology ...
