Growth of Intermediate‐Mass Black Holes in Globular Clusters [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2004
We present results of numerical simulations of sequences of binary-single scattering events of black holes in dense stellar environments. The simulations cover a wide range of mass ratios from equal mass objects to 1000:10:10 solar masses and compare purely Newtonian simulations to simulations in which Newtonian encounters are interspersed with ...

GW231123: Likely a Product of Successive Mergers from ∼10 Stellar-mass Black Holes

The Astrophysical Journal
GW231123 is an exceptionally massive binary black hole (BBH) merger with unusually high component spins. Such extreme properties challenge conventional stellar evolution models, predicting a black hole (BH) mass gap due to pair-instability supernovae. We

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Near-infrared Variability Detected in the Young Star-forming Dwarf Galaxy SBS 0335-052E

The Astrophysical Journal
SBS 0335-052E is a young star-forming dwarf galaxy with a total stellar mass of M _*  ≲ 10 ^8 M _⊙ and an extremely low metallicity ( Z  ∼ 1/40 Z _⊙ ), which has long been considered to be devoid of an active galactic nucleus (AGN).

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

Geodesic Geometry of Black Holes [PDF]

, 2006
The study of geodesics is of intrinsic significance in the study of the geometry of space-time. In this thesis null, space-like and time-like geodesics are studied in the case of the space-times of Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordstrouml;m and Kerr black ...

The Intermediate-mass Black Hole Reverberation Mapping Project: First Detection of Mid-infrared Lags in Prototypical Intermediate-mass Black Holes in NGC 4395 and POX 52

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The search for robust evidence of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) is crucial for understanding the black hole seeding process and the formation of supermassive black holes in the early Universe.

Looking for Intermediate-Mass Black Holes [PDF]

Nuclear 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 ...

Tracing intermediate-mass black holes in the Galactic Centre [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007
AbstractWe have developed a new method for post-Newtonian, high-precision integration of stellar systems containing a super-massive black hole (SMBH), splitting the forces on a particle between a dominant central force and perturbations. We used this method to perform fully collisional N-body simulations of inspiralling intermediate-mass black holes ...
