Accretion Into and Emission from Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
Analyses are given of various processes involving matter falling into or coming out of black holes. A significant amount of matter may fall into a black hole in a galactic nucleus or in a binary system.

An intermediate‐mass black hole candidate in M51? [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2016
AbstractWe present the current results of an investigation into M51 ULX‐7, using archival data from XMM‐Newton, Chandra and NuSTAR, and optical and radio data from HST and VLA. The source has a consistently hard power‐law X‐ray spectrum and high short‐term variability.

Demographics of Hierarchical Black Hole Mergers in Dense Star Clusters

open access: yesThe 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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesThe 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).

Uniqueness of near-horizon geometries of rotating extremal AdS(4) black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We consider stationary extremal black hole solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations with a negative cosmological constant in four dimensions. We determine all non-static axisymmetric near-horizon geometries and all static near-horizon geometries for ...

Hypervelocity Stars from a Supermassive Black Hole–Intermediate-mass Black Hole Binary [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Abstract In this paper we consider a scenario in which the currently observed hypervelocity stars in our Galaxy have been ejected from the Galactic center as a result of dynamical interactions with an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) orbiting the central supermassive black hole (SMBH).

THE CLOSE STELLAR COMPANIONS TO INTERMEDIATE-MASS BLACK HOLES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT When embedded in dense cluster cores, intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) acquire close stellar or stellar-remnant companions. These companions are not only gravitationally bound, but also tend to hierarchically isolate from other cluster stars through series of multibody encounters.
