Evolution of Intermediate-Mass Black Hole X-Ray Binaries
The majority of the ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) in external galaxies are believed to be accreting black holes in binary systems; some of the black holes could be as massive as ∼ 100 − 1000M⊙. We have performed evolution calculations for intermediate-mass black hole X-ray binaries, assuming they are formed in dense star clusters via tidal capture. The results are compared with those for s...
متن کاملRegular second order perturbations of extreme mass ratio black hole binaries
We report on the first results of self-consistent second order metric perturbations produced by a point particle moving in the Schwarzschild spacetime. The second order waveforms satisfy a wave equation with an effective source term build up from products of first order metric perturbations and its derivatives. We have explicitly regularized this source term at the particle location as well as ...

متن کاملPerturbation theory of N point-mass gravitational lens systems without symmetry: small mass-ratio approximation
This paper makes the first systematic attempt to determine using perturbation theory the positions of images by gravitational lensing due to arbitrary number of coplanar masses without any symmetry on a plane, as a function of lens and source parameters. We present a method of Taylor-series expansion to solve the lens equation under a small mass-ratio approximation. First, we investigate pertur...
متن کاملExtreme-Mass-Ratio-Black-Hole-Binary Evolutions with Numerical Relativity
We perform the first fully nonlinear numerical simulations of black-hole binaries with mass ratios 100:1. Our technique is based on the moving puncture formalism with a new gauge condition and an optimal choice of the mesh refinement. The evolutions start with a small nonspinning black hole just outside the ISCO that orbits twice before plunging. We compute the gravitational radiation, as well ...
