Investigating the mass of the intermediate mass black hole candidate HLX-1 with the SLIMBH model [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper we present a comprehensive study of the mass of the intermediate mass black hole candidate HLX-1 in the galaxy ESO 243-49. We analyse the continuum X-ray spectra collected by Swift, XMM-Newton, and Chandra with the slim disc model, SLIMBH ...

Features of globular cluster’s dynamics with an intermediate-mass black hole
Open Astronomy, 2018 In this paper, we address the question of how a central intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) in a globular cluster (GC) affects dynamics, core collapse, and formation of the binary population.

Soap Bubbles in Outer Space: Interaction of a Domain Wall with a Black Hole [PDF]
, 1998 We discuss the generalized Plateau problem in the 3+1 dimensional Schwarzschild background. This represents the physical situation, which could for instance have appeared in the early universe, where a cosmic membrane (thin domain wall) is located near a

The Nature of the IMBH Candidate CXO J133815.6+043255: High-frequency Radio Emission
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The ultraluminous X-ray source CXO J133815.6+043255 is a strong candidate for a bona fide intermediate-mass black hole residing in the outskirts of NGC 5252.

Star Clusters with Primordial Binaries: III. Dynamical Interaction between Binaries and an Intermediate Mass Black Hole [PDF]
, 2006 We present the first study of the dynamical evolution of an isolated star cluster that combines a significant population of primordial binaries with the presence of a central black hole.

Gravitational Waves from Merging Intermediate‐Mass Black Holes [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2004 The discovery of an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) supports a runaway path of supermassive black hole (SMBH) formation in galactic nuclei. No concrete model to explain all the steps of this bottom-up scenario for SMBHs is yet known, but here we propose to use gravitational radiation to probe the merging history of IMBHs.

Intermediate-mass black holes and the Fundamental Plane of black hole accretion
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT We present new 5 GHz Very Large Array observations of a sample of eight active intermediate-mass black holes with masses 104.9 M⊙ < M < 106.1 M⊙ found in galaxies with stellar masses M* < 3 × 109 M⊙. We detected five of the eight sources at high significance.

Tidal disruption of white dwarfs by intermediate mass black holes
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 Modeling ultra-close encounters between a white dwarf and a spinning, intermediate mass black hole requires a full general relativistic treatment of gravity. This paper summarizes results from such a study.

Timing the starburst-AGN connection [PDF]
, 2010 The mass of super massive black holes at the centre of galaxies is tightly correlated with the mass of the galaxy bulges which host them. This observed correlation implies a mechanism of joint growth, but the precise physical processes responsible are a ...
