Demographics of Hierarchical Black Hole Mergers in Dense Star Clusters
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 With about one hundred mergers of binary black holes (BBHs) detected via gravitational waves by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) Collaboration, our understanding of the darkest objects in the universe has taken unparalleled steps forward.

Constraints on relic magnetic black holes
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We present current direct and astrophysical limits on the cosmological abundance of black holes with extremal magnetic charge. Such black holes do not Hawking radiate, allowing those normally too light to survive to the present to do so.

Synchronizing the EMRIs and IMRIs in AGN Accretion Disks
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) and intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals (IMRIs) are important gravitational-wave (GW) sources for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA).

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.

Gravitational Radiation from Intermediate‐Mass Black Holes [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 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 ...
