Timing the starburst-AGN connection [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Candidate ULXs [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2005
In a subset of the most luminous of the so-called “ultra-luminous” X-ray sources in nearby galaxies, there is evidence for black holes with masses considerably higher than found in Galactic binaries. Apart from extremely high X-ray luminosities, cool disks found in the X-ray spectra of these sources and X-ray timing measurements form the basis for ...

Testing the Kerr nature of intermediate-mass and supermassive black hole binaries using spin-induced multipole moment measurements

open access: yes, 2020
The gravitational wave measurements of spin-induced multipole moment coefficients of a binary black hole system can be used to distinguish black holes from other compact objects [N. V. Krishnendu et al., PRL 119, 091101 (2017)].

Intermediate-mass black holes in binary-rich star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
AbstractThree-body interactions of stellar-mass binaries with intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) in nuclei of globular clusters may produce specific features that may serve as an independent indicator of existence of the IMBHs. By means of direct N-body integrations we follow the dynamical evolution of globular clusters of moderate extension and ...

Intermediate-mass black hole incubators

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The stellar dynamical evolution of massive star clusters formed during starburst periods leads to the segregation of ≳104 M⊙ stellar-mass black hole sub-clusters in their centres.

Supermassive black holes as the regulators of star formation in central galaxies

open access: yes, 2017
We present a relationship between the black hole mass, stellar mass, and star formation rate of a diverse group of 91 galaxies with dynamically-measured black hole masses.

Radio Detections During Two State Transitions of the Intermediate Mass Black Hole HLX-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Relativistic jets are streams of plasma moving at appreciable fractions of the speed of light. They have been observed from stellar mass black holes ($\sim$3$-$20 solar masses, M$_\odot$) as well as supermassive black holes ($\sim$10$^6$$-$10$^9$ M$_ ...

Looking for Intermediate-Mass Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2010
A discussion of the entropy of the universe leads to the suggestion of very many intermediate-mass black holes between thirty and three hundred thousand solar masses in the halo. It is consistent with observations on wide binaries as well as microlensing and considerations of disk stability that such IMBHs constitute all cold dark ...
