Electromagnetic Signals Following Stellar-mass Black Hole Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2017
Abstract It is often assumed that gravitational-wave (GW) events resulting from the merger of stellar-mass black holes are unlikely to produce electromagnetic (EM) counterparts. We point out that the progenitor binary has probably shed a mass ≳10 M ⊙ during its prior evolution.

The properties of primordially-seeded black holes and their hosts in the first billion years: implications for JWST

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations have opened a tantalising new window onto possible black holes as early as redshifts of z ∼ 10.4.

Impact of the Accretion Disk Thickness on the Polarization of the Thermal Emission from Stellar Mass Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer, launched in 2021 December, enables precision measurements of the energy-dependent polarization of the X-ray emission from stellar mass and supermassive black holes.

The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): probing accretion onto stellar mass black holes

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Accretion is a universal astrophysical process that plays a key role in cosmic history, from the epoch of reionization to galaxy and stellar formation and evolution. Accreting stellar-mass black holes in X-ray binaries are one of the best laboratories to

The Masses and Spins of Neutron Stars and Stellar-Mass Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Stellar-mass black holes and neutron stars represent extremes in gravity, density, and magnetic fields. They therefore serve as key objects in the study of multiple frontiers of physics.

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Black Hole Accretion and Spin-up through Stellar Collisions in Dense Star Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Dynamical interactions in dense star clusters could significantly influence the properties of black holes, leaving imprints on their gravitational-wave signatures.

Supercritically accreting stellar mass black holes as ultraluminous X-ray sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We derive the luminosity‐temperature relation for the supercritically accreting black holes (BHs) and compare it to the data on ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs). At super-Eddington accretion rates, an outflow forms within the spherization radius.

WIMPs and stellar-mass primordial black holes are incompatible [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2019
We recently showed that postulated ultracompact minihalos with a steep density profile do not form in realistic simulations with enhanced initial perturbations.
