An Overview of Jets and Outflows in Stellar Mass Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2014
In this book chapter, we will briefly review the current empirical understanding of the relation between accretion state and and outflows in accreting stellar mass black holes. The focus will be on the empirical connections between X-ray states and relativistic (`radio') jets, although we are now also able to draw accretion disc winds into the picture ...

Can stellar mass black holes be quark stars? [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009
We investigate the possibility that stellar mass black holes, with masses in the range of $3.8M_{\odot}$ and $6M_{\odot}$, respectively, could be in fact quark stars in the Color-Flavor-Locked (CFL) phase. Depending on the value of the gap parameter, rapidly rotating CFL quark stars can achieve much higher masses than standard neutron stars, thus ...

Observational Evidence for Cosmological Coupling of Black Holes and its Implications for an Astrophysical Source of Dark Energy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Observations have found black holes spanning 10 orders of magnitude in mass across most of cosmic history. The Kerr black hole solution is, however, provisional as its behavior at infinity is incompatible with an expanding universe.

RETENTION OF STELLAR-MASS BLACK HOLES IN GLOBULAR CLUSTERS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2013
Globular clusters should be born with significant numbers of stellar-mass black holes (BHs). It has been thought for two decades that very few of these BHs could be retained through the cluster lifetime. With masses ~10 MSun, BHs are ~20 times more massive than an average cluster star.

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.
