Black Holes All the Way Down: New Multimessenger Evidence for a Binary Black Hole Merger Within an Active Galactic Nucleus
In today’s paper, a unique gravitational wave event is re-examined as the possible origin of an AGN flare. What are the odds?
Juggling black holes in star clusters
Today’s authors explore a new formation channel for forming intermediate mass black holes!
I Want to Know What Gravity Is
In my life, there’s been hunger and pain
I don’t know if I can face it again
Can’t stop now, I’ve orbited so far
To change this lonely life…

Do black holes hug each other in AGN disks?
Thanks to gravitational waves, we have detections of black holes mergers. Now imagine they are embedded in AGN disks, can you guess what’s going to happen to them? The authors of today’s paper can tell you if your guess was correct!
