Following up on flares: Can we spot black hole mergers in AGN disks?

Following up on flares: Can we spot black hole mergers in AGN disks?

by William Smith | Jul 15, 2025 | Daily Paper Summaries

In today’s Astrobite, we revisit the possibility of binary black hole mergers in AGN disks creating flares, which could have interesting implications for multimessenger astronomy and cosmology.
