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

Gravitational Waves from Merging Intermediate‐Mass Black Holes [PDF]
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
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
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.

Gravitational waves from intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals for ground-based detectors [PDF]
We explore the prospects for Advanced LIGO to detect gravitational waves from neutron stars and stellar mass black holes spiraling into intermediate-mass ($M\sim 50 M_\odot$ to $350 M_\odot$) black holes.

Gravitational Radiation from Intermediate‐Mass Black Holes [PDF]
Recent X-ray observations of galaxies with ROSAT, ASCA, and Chandra have revealed numerous bright off-center point sources which, if isotropic emitters, are likely to be intermediate-mass black holes, with hundreds to thousands of solar masses. The origin of these objects is under debate, but observations suggest that a significant number of them ...

The Nature of the IMBH Candidate CXO J133815.6+043255: High-frequency Radio Emission
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.
