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.

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.

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.

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 ...

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.

The Black Hole Mass Function: From Stellar to Supermassive [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The overall purpose of this thesis is to establish the black hole (BH) mass function, from stellar to supermassive. We divide this work into two: 1) the stellar black hole mass function covering the mass range $m_{\bullet} \sim 5 - 150 \ M_{\odot}$; 2 ...
