Dynamics Around Supermassive Black Holes: Extreme-mass-ratio Inspirals as Gravitational-wave Sources
The Astrophysical JournalSupermassive black holes and their surrounding dense stellar environments nourish a variety of astrophysical phenomena. We focus on the distribution of stellar-mass black holes around the supermassive black hole and the consequent formation of extreme ...

New Estimates of the Spin and Accretion Rate of the Black Hole M87*
The Astrophysical Journal LettersIn this Letter, we use the imaging results of M87* from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) to calculate the rotational velocity of the inner edge of the accretion disk and find a value of ∼0.14 c .

Supermassive Black Holes at the Center of Galaxies [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 This was my final paper for the AST 308 Galaxies class at Michigan State University. Using many sources I was able to compile a moderate amount of information concerning the evidence for, and the formation of Supermassive Black Holes.

Supermassive Black Holes in the Universe [PDF]
, 2004 In these lecture notes we will give a very basic introduction to supermassive black holes. We derive the basic luminosity expected for accretion and introduce the Eddington limit. Kinematical evidence for black holes in the centers of galaxies from optical and radio spectroscopy is discussed as well as the link between black holes and host galaxy ...

The Astrophysical Journal LettersQuasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) are very common in black hole accretion systems that are seen from the modulations in luminosity. Many supermassive black hole sources (e.g., RE J1034+396, 1H 0707-495, MCG-6-30-15, 1ES 1927+654, Sgr A*) have been ...
