A high-velocity star recently ejected by an intermediate-mass black hole in M15

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Yang Huang, Qingzheng Li, Jifeng Liu, Xiaobo Dong, Huawei Zhang | Summary: The existence of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) is crucial for understanding various astrophysical phenomena, yet their existence remains elusive, except for the LIGO-Virgo detection. We report the discovery of a high-velocity star J0731+3717, whose backward […]

High priority targets for transient gravitational waves from glitching pulsars

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Garvin Yim, Lijing Shao, Renxin Xu, , | Summary: Glitching pulsars are expected to be important sources of gravitational waves. In this paper, we explore six different models that propose the emission of transient continuous waves, lasting days to months, coincident with glitches. The maximal gravitational wave […]

The Velocity Dispersion Function for Quiescent Galaxies in Massive Clusters from IllustrisTNG

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Jubee Sohn, Margaret J. Geller, Josh Borrow, Mark Vogelsberger, | Summary: We derive the central stellar velocity dispersion function for quiescent galaxies in 280 massive clusters with $log (M_{200} / M_{odot}) > 14$ in IllustrisTNG300. The velocity dispersion function is an independent tracer of the dark matter […]
