Title: Formation of Black Hole Binaries in AGN disks through Close Encounters Abstract: The possibility of binary black hole (BH) mergers in active galactic nucleus (AGN) accretion disks has recently … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Jiaru Li (Cornell)"
Title: The role of AGN accretion disks in the formation of characteristic, low-frequency GW sources Accretion disks in active galactic nuclei (AGN) can enhance the formation of gravitational wave (GW) … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Andrea Derdzinski (U. of Zurich)"
Title: Searches for gravitational-waves beyond compact binary coalescences Abstract: The Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors have now completed three observing runs, and reported dozens of detections form compact binary mergers. … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Meg Millhouse (GaTech)"
Title: Multiscale Simulations of Star Formation from Molecular Clouds Abstract: Star formation lies at the center of many fundamental topics in astrophysics. No comprehensive, quantitative theory of star formation has been established due to the complex physics involved and the huge dynamic range of the problem. Using a series of MHD simulations of star formation … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: ChongChong He (U. of Maryland)"
