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.

Feedback by Massive Black Holes in Gas-rich Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2017
Abstract Could there be intermediate-mass black holes in essentially all old dwarf galaxies? I argue that current observations of active galactic nuclei in dwarfs allow such a radical hypothesis that provides early feedback during the epoch of galaxy formation and potentially provides a unifying explanation for many, if not all, of the ...

Black Hole Growth and Feedback in Isolated ROMULUS25 Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2020
Abstract We investigate the effects of massive black hole growth on the structural evolution of dwarf galaxies within the Romulus25 cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. We study a sample of 205 central, isolated dwarf galaxies with stellar masses and a central BH.

Studying the Radiation of a White Dwarf Star Falling onto a Black Hole

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate electromagnetic and gravitational radiation generated during the process of the tidal stripping of a white dwarf star circulating a black hole.

Exploring the Evolution of a Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy with SPH Simulations. II. AGN Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from an intermediate-mass black hole at the center of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy, by performing isolated galaxy simulations using a modified version of the GADGET-3 code. We consider Leo II (PGC 34176)

Active Galactic Nucleus Quenching in Simulated Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We examine the quenching characteristics of 328 isolated dwarf galaxies $\left({10}^{8}\lt {M}_{\mathrm{star}}/{M}_{\odot }\lt {10}^{10}\right)$ within the Romulus25 cosmological hydrodynamic simulation.

Two-exon skipping within MLPH is associated with coat color dilution in rabbits. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Coat color dilution turns black coat color to blue and red color to cream and is a characteristic in many mammalian species. Matings among Netherland Dwarf, Loh, and Lionhead Dwarf rabbits over two generations gave evidence for a monogenic autosomal ...

The Contribution Of Outer HI Disks To The Merging Binary Black Hole Population

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the contribution of outer HI disks to the observable population of merging black hole binaries. Like dwarf galaxies, the outer HI disks of spirals have low star formation rates and lower metallicities than the inner disks of spirals. Since

An Alternative Origin for Hypervelocity Stars

open access: yes, 2008
Halo stars with unusually high radial velocity ("hypervelocity" stars, or HVS) are thought to be stars unbound to the Milky Way that originate from the gravitational interaction of stellar systems with the supermassive black hole at the Galactic center ...

On Companion-Induced Off-Center Supernova-Like Explosions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We suggest that a neutron star with a strong magnetic field, spiraling into the envelope of a companion star, can generate a ``companion induced SN-like off-center explosion".
