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?
You spin me right round (Like a circumbinary disk)
Check out how a circumbinary disk interacts with a supermassive black hole binary in today’s paper.
Watching a Star Circle the Supermassive Drain
Black holes are powerful enough to rip apart stars caught in their orbit– but we’ve seen the signals from a few of these disruptive events repeat. What happens when a black hole only eats part of a star?
Continued analysis on the continuous search for continuous waves (continued)
Post-detection of a gravitational wave background, pulsar timing arrays could detect individual sources of gravitational waves, called Continuous Waves. Let’s find out what properties we expect them to have!
Sowing the CEERS of Supermassive Black Holes in the Early Universe
How did supermassive black holes grow in the early universe? Finding faint and distant AGN with JWST may help us unravel this mystery!
Twinkle twinkle trail of stars, how I wonder what you are?
What are the origins of this mysterious stellar streak ? Could it be a wake left behind by a rogue black hole or something else entirely ?
