Gravitational-wave Sources from Mergers of Binary Black Holes Catalyzed by Flyby Interactions in the Field [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Several scenarios were suggested for the origins of gravitational-wave (GW) sources from mergers of stellar binary black holes (BBHs). Here we propose a novel origin through catalyzed formation of GW sources from ultra-wide binaries in the field.

Gravitational wave sources from inspiralling globular clusters in the Galactic Centre and similar environments [PDF]
, 2018 We model the inspiral of globular clusters (GCs) towards a galactic nucleus harboring a supermassive black hole (SMBH), a leading scenario for the formation of nuclear star clusters.We consider the case of GCs containing either an intermediate-mass ...

Astrometric Search Method for Individually Resolvable Gravitational Wave Sources with Gaia. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2017 Gravitational waves (GWs) cause the apparent position of distant stars to oscillate with a characteristic pattern on the sky. Astrometric measurements (e.g., those made by Gaia) provide a new way to search for GWs.

Mass–redshift degeneracy for the gravitational-wave sources in the vicinity of supermassive black holes [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2017 Retrieving the mass of a gravitational-wave (GW) source is a fundamental but difficult problem because the mass is degenerate with redshift. In astronomy, three types of redshift exist, namely cosmological, Doppler, and gravitational redshift, but the ...

Research Note: The Expected Spins of Gravitational Wave Sources With Isolated Field Binary Progenitors [PDF]
, 2017 We explore the consequences of dynamical evolution of field binaries composed of a primary black hole (BH) and a Wolf-Rayet (WR) star in the context of gravitational wave (GW) source progenitors.

Gravitational wave emission from the CMB and other thermal fields
Physics Letters B, 2021 We calculate the gravitational wave power density emitted by quantum thermal sources. As particular cases, we calculate the emission of gravitational waves from the cosmic microwave background and from stellar sources.

GRB 211211A-like Events and How Gravitational Waves May Tell Their Origins
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 GRB 211211A is a rare burst with a genuinely long duration, yet its prominent kilonova association provides compelling evidence that this peculiar burst was the result of a compact binary merger.
