Neutrino absorption and other physics dependencies in neutrino-cooled black hole accretion discs

O. Just et al.

Summary: The absorption of neutrinos affects the electron fraction (Y-e), pushing it towards 0.5 outside the torus and increasing the equilibrium value inside. Additionally, more compact tori result in lower Y-e values, with a strong r-process potentially limited to phases of high mass-infall rates.

The Redshift Evolution of the Binary Black Hole Merger Rate: A Weighty Matter

L. A. C. van Son et al.

Summary: This study predicts and investigates the correlation between binary black hole (BBH) merger rate, R (BBH)(z), and black hole mass for systems originating from isolated binaries. The results show that the common envelope (CE) channel tends to produce smaller black holes with shorter delay times, while the stable Roche-lobe overflow (RLOF) channel primarily forms larger black hole systems with longer delay times. By using metallicity-dependent specific star formation rate density, the redshift evolution of R (BBH)(z) is predicted. It is found that at high redshift, the CE channel dominates R (BBH)(z), while at low redshift, the stable RLOF channel contributes about 40% to R (BBH)(z). The results also suggest that as redshift increases, binary black holes with component masses above 30 solar masses will become increasingly rare.

Signatures of r-process Enrichment in Supernovae from Collapsars

Jennifer Barnes et al.

Summary: Despite progress, the astrophysical channels responsible for r-process nucleosynthesis remain uncertain. This study examines the effects of r-process enrichment on the emission from SNe and proposes a collapsar theory for the production of r-process winds. The study suggests that monitoring high-velocity SNe shortly after explosion may lead to the early identification of r-process collapsar candidates.

State of the Field: Binary Black Hole Natal Kicks and Prospects for Isolated Field Formation after GWTC-2

Thomas A. Callister et al.

Summary: The study explores the possibility of dynamically formed binary black holes inside dense stellar clusters based on the spin-orbit misalignment observed in gravitational-wave detections. It suggests that extreme natal kicks are needed for compact binary formation through the standard common envelope scenario if isolated black holes have small natal spins. Additional channels or unforeseen mechanisms may contribute to the observed binary black hole population.

Ultra-delayed Neutrino-driven Explosion of Rotating Massive-star Collapse

Sho Fujibayashi et al.

Summary: Long-term neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulations in full general relativity show that collapsing rotating massive stars can form rotationally supported proto-neutron stars if they have sufficient angular momentum. The subsequent mass accretion onto the central region leads to the formation of a massive and compact central object, with enhanced neutrino luminosity resulting in a delayed neutrino-driven explosion. The explosion can have kinetic energy significantly higher than 10^52 erg for a massive progenitor star, eventually collapsing into a rapidly spinning black hole after accretion.

The final core collapse of pulsational pair instability supernovae

Jade Powell et al.

Summary: In 3D core-collapse supernova simulations of massive Population III progenitor stars transitioning to the pulsational pair instability regime, different progenitor models with initial masses of 85 and 100M(dot) experience varying evolution processes. The 85M(dot) progenitor collapses to a black hole with delayed collapse due to ongoing accretion, while the 100M(dot) progenitor does not show shock revival or BH collapse by the end of the simulation. Models exhibit strong gravitational-wave emission at both high and low frequencies, with different detection distances estimated for LIGO and Cosmic Explorer.

The Pair-instability Mass Gap for Black Holes

S. E. Woosley et al.

Summary: The study examines the factors affecting the theoretical estimates for the boundaries of the mass gap between black holes and supernovae, including nuclear reaction rates, evolution in detached binaries, rotation, and hyper-Eddington accretion after black hole birth. Current uncertainties in reaction rates may allow the lower boundary of the mass gap to rise to 64 solar masses, while rapid rotation and super-Eddington accretion could further increase this lower limit.

Maximum black hole mass across cosmic time

Jorick S. Vink et al.

Summary: Recent detection of a 85M(circle dot) BH challenges the theory of pair-instability limit. Using mesa simulations, it is found that 90-100 M(circle dot) stars at reduced metallicity can produce BH within the 'impossible' range by proper consideration of core overshooting and stellar wind physics. This modeling doubles the maximum BH mass set by pair-instability and opens up possibilities for probing stellar BH mass as a function of metallicity and cosmic time.

Stellar Evolution in the Disks of Active Galactic Nuclei Produces Rapidly Rotating Massive Stars

Adam S. Jermyn et al.

Summary: Stars in active galactic nuclei (AGN) can be formed or captured by accretion disks, experiencing extreme levels of accretion that can lead to their transformation into very massive stars. These AGN stars rapidly spin up due to accretion, maintaining near-critical rotation rates even as they evolve and shed their envelopes. They are considered potential sources of high-spin massive black holes and contribute to phenomena like long gamma-ray bursts and chemical pollution in AGN disks.

Accretion onto Stars in the Disks of Active Galactic Nuclei

Alexander J. Dittmann et al.

Summary: Research indicates that stars formed in accretion disks around supermassive black holes exhibit significant differences in evolution compared to those in the interstellar medium, depending largely on the mass and distance of the black hole. Tidal effects from the black hole greatly impact the evolution of stars in AGN disks. The location of stellar explosions, formation of compact remnants, potential mergers producing gravitational waves, and different types of chemical enrichment in AGN disks are sensitive to the environmental conditions and parameters of the supermassive black hole.

Alternative possibility of GW190521: Gravitational waves from high-mass black hole-disk systems

Masaru Shibata et al.

Summary: In this study, high-mass disks orbiting a spinning black hole were found to be dynamically unstable, producing high-amplitude gravitational waves. The waveforms exhibit an initial burst followed by quasiperiodic oscillation, with characteristics resembling GW190521. These gravitational waves from rapidly rotating massive stars could serve as a source for 3rd-generation gravitational-wave detectors to explore the formation of high-mass black holes in the early universe.

GW190521 May Be an Intermediate-mass Ratio Inspiral

Alexander H. Nitz et al.

Summary: GW190521 is the first confident observation of a binary black hole merger with total mass exceeding 100 solar masses. Different priors led to a bimodal posterior distribution in mass, with the high-mass-ratio mode dominating in maximum-likelihood parameters. Results differ from previous studies, suggesting the presence of a mass gap and emphasizing the importance of considering all possible scenarios in analyses.
