Stellar-mass black holes in young massive and open stellar clusters - IV. Updated stellar-evolutionary and black hole spin models and comparisons with the LIGO-Virgo O1/O2 merger-event data

Sambaran Banerjee

Summary: This study conducted long-term, direct, relativistic many-body computations in model dense stellar clusters using up-to-date stellar-evolutionary, supernova, and remnant natal-kick models. The results showed that these models can produce dynamically paired black hole mergers that are in agreement with observations, while also suggesting that young massive clusters and moderately massive open clusters may produce detectable gravitational wave sources.

Binary Black Hole Formation with Detailed Modeling: Stable Mass Transfer Leads to Lower Merger Rates

Monica Gallegos-Garcia et al.

Summary: Rapid binary population synthesis codes and MESA simulations show significant differences in predicting binary black hole mergers in terms of formation paths, orbital periods, and mass ratios. Rapid synthesis codes may overestimate the number of mergers, especially at subsolar metallicity. Detailed treatment of interactive binary phases is necessary for accurate interpretation of gravitational-wave observations.

Distance measures in gravitational-wave astrophysics and cosmology

Hsin-Yu Chen et al.

Summary: This paper introduces quantities that characterize the sensitivity of gravitational-wave observatories to sources at cosmological distances, including horizon, range, response, and reach distances. These quantities take into account various important effects, such as cosmologically defined distances and volumes, cosmological redshift, cosmological time dilation, and rate density evolution. Unique aspects of gravitational wave detectors, like the variable sky sensitivity and the sensitivity scaling with distance, are also considered.

Intermediate mass black hole formation in compact young massive star clusters

Francesco Paolo Rizzuto et al.

Summary: Young and dense massive star clusters are favorable environments for the formation of intermediate mass black holes through collisions, with very massive stars rapidly growing to form IMBHs. The formation efficiency is higher in more compact clusters, and lower accretion fractions also contribute to IMBH formation.

The impact of mass-transfer physics on the observable properties of field binary black hole populations

Simone S. Bavera et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of mass-transfer physics on observable properties of binary black hole populations and finds that low common envelope efficiency results in tighter orbits and more tidal spin-up. In the detectable population, all non-zero spin systems come from the common envelope channel, with a local rate density range of 17-113 Gpc(-3) yr(-1), while the stable mass transfer channel has a rate density of 25 Gpc(-3) yr(-1.

Stellar-mass black holes in young massive and open stellar clusters - V. comparisons with LIGO-Virgo merger rate densities

Sambaran Banerjee

Summary: The study focuses on the contribution of young massive star clusters and open star clusters to the merger rate density of binary black holes. It finds that the dynamical interactions in these clusters can explain the merger rate density and its evolution. The predicted merger rate densities agree with observational data and improve our understanding of compact binary merger channels.

The role of mass transfer and common envelope evolution in the formation of merging binary black holes

Pablo Marchant et al.

Summary: As the number of observed merging binary black holes with gravitational-wave detectors increases, accurate theoretical models are needed for comparisons and separations of contributions from multiple channels. Uncertainties remain in the stability of mass transfer and common-envelope evolution. Binary simulations suggest that successful envelope ejection occurs only after the formation of a deep convective envelope during common-envelope evolution. It is found that the critical mass ratio for instability allows for merging binary black holes to be formed via stable mass transfer across a wide range of initial orbital periods.

One Channel to Rule Them All? Constraining the Origins of Binary Black Holes Using Multiple Formation Pathways

Michael Zevin et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the second batch of LIGO-Virgo gravitational wave catalog using five binary black hole population models, finding that multiple formation channels contribute to the observed sample of binary black holes and no single channel dominates the detections. Results also showed a preference for natal spins of isolated black holes less than or equal to 0.1 and common-envelope efficiencies of around 2.0.

Population Properties of Compact Objects from the Second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

R. Abbott et al.

Summary: The study reveals unique characteristics of the merging binary black hole (BBH) population, including a specific primary mass spectrum and misaligned component spins leading to precession of the orbital plane. The research also estimates merger rates, indicating potential correlation between BBH rate and redshift but not exceeding the star formation rate. Additionally, recent exceptional events are examined in relation to population models, with GW190814 being identified as an outlier due to its low secondary mass.

The Time Delay Distribution and Formation Metallicity of LIGO-Virgo's Binary Black Holes

Maya Fishbach et al.

Summary: We derived constraints on the time delay distribution of binary black hole mergers using the LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog. The data favor short time delays regardless of the assumed metallicity dependence, and long time delays require progenitor formation rate peaks at higher redshifts. Additionally, the inferred formation rate and time delay distribution may vary with the mass of the binary black holes.

Summary: Detection of gravitational waves from mergers of neutron stars and black holes in the low- and high-end mass gap poses a puzzle to standard stellar and binary evolution theory. Research shows that most first-generation mergers are consistent with isolated binaries, while second-generation mergers are less common and can be strongly affected by three-body interactions.

Dynamics of binary black holes in low-mass young star clusters

Sara Rastello et al.

Summary: Black holes (Buis) and binary black holes (BBHs) formed in low-mass young star clusters are mainly generated through dynamical exchanges, with most BBH mergers involving primary Buis with lower mass. The percentage of exchanged BBHs shows a strong dependence on the mass of the host star cluster, while the efficiency of BBH mergers only exhibits a mild correlation with the mass of the host star cluster, as indicated by the research data.

Filling the black hole mass gap: Avoiding pair instability in massive stars through addition of nonnuclear energy

Joshua Ziegler et al.

Summary: A gap in the black hole mass function has been discovered, prompting the proposal of a new method involving the addition of an extra energy source to stars to avoid complete destruction in a pair-instability supernova and instead leave behind a black hole remnant. This phenomenon has been shown by adding an energy source independent of temperature and density to a massive star, allowing it to evolve into a black hole remnant in the mass gap.

Massive Stellar Triples Leading to Sequential Binary Black Hole Mergers in the Field

Alejandro Vigna-Gomez et al.

Summary: This study explores the evolution of stellar triples with massive components leading to sequential binary black hole mergers, suggesting that these mergers can also occur outside of dense dynamical environments. The research also analyzes the evolution of two gravitational-wave sources, GW170729 and GW190521, proposing that the former originates from a low-metallicity field triple and arguing against the latter being formed in the field. In conclusion, the study emphasizes the importance of triple stellar evolution in understanding gravitational wave sources and other energetic transients.

Intermediate mass black hole formation in compact young massive star clusters

Francesco Paolo Rizzuto et al.

Summary: By simulating young dense massive star clusters, a potential mechanism for the formation of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) through star collisions has been identified. Particularly, very massive stars grow rapidly through binary exchange and three-body scattering in hard binaries, potentially leading to the formation of IMBHs in a short period of time.
