Stellar‐Mass Black Holes in the Solar Neighborhood [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2003
We search for nearby, isolated, accreting, ``stellar-mass'' (3 to $100M_\odot$) black holes. Models suggest a synchrotron spectrum in visible wavelengths and some emission in X-ray wavelengths. Of 3.7 million objects in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Early Data Release, about 150,000 objects have colors and properties consistent with such a spectrum, and

JWST CEERS and JADES Active Galaxies at z = 4–7 Violate the Local M •–M ⋆ Relation at >3σ: Implications for Low-mass Black Holes and Seeding Models

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
JWST is revolutionizing our understanding of the high- z Universe by expanding the black hole horizon, looking farther and to smaller masses, and revealing the stellar light of their hosts.

Topics in Core-Collapse Supernova Theory: The Formation of Black Holes and the Transport of Neutrinos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Core-Collapse Supernovae are one of the most complex astrophysical systems in the universe. They deeply entwine aspects of physics and astrophysics that are rarely side by side in nature.

Estimating the spins of stellar-mass black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We describe a program that we have embarked on to estimate the spins of stellar-mass black holes in X-ray binaries. We fit the continuum X-ray spectrum of the radiation from the accretion disk using the standard thin disk model, and extract the dimensionless spin parameter a* = a/M of the black hole as a parameter of the fit.

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.

Indirect Evidence for Dark Matter Density Spikes around Stellar-mass Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
It has been suggested for a long time that dark matter would form a density spike around a black hole. However, no promising evidence has been observed so far to verify this theoretical suggestion.
