Post-merger Jets from Supermassive Black Hole Coalescences as Electromagnetic Counterparts of Gravitational Wave Emission

چکیده

Abstract As a powerful source of gravitational waves (GW), supermassive black hole (SMBH) merger may be accompanied by relativistic jet that leads to detectable electromagnetic (EM) emission. We model the propagation post-merger jets inside pre-merger wind bubble formed disk winds, and calculate multiwavelength EM spectra from forward shock region. show nonthermal signals SMBH mergers are up detection horizon future GW facilities such as Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). Calculations based on our predict slowly fading transients with time delays days months after coalescence, leading implications for follow-up observations detection.

Supermassive Black Hole Merger Rates: Uncertainties from Halo Merger Theory

The merger of two supermassive black holes is expected to produce a gravitational-wave signal detectable by the satellite LISA. The rate of supermassive-black-hole mergers is intimately connected to the halo merger rate, and the extended Press–Schechter formalism is often employed when calculating the rate at which these events will be observed by LISA. This merger theory is flawed and provides...

Detection of Gravitational Wave Emission by Supermassive Black Hole Binaries Through Tidal Disruption Flares

Galaxy mergers produce supermassive black hole binaries, which emit gravitational waves prior to their coalescence. We perform three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations to study the tidal disruption of stars by such a binary in the final centuries of its life. We find that the gas stream of the stellar debris moves chaotically in the binary potential and forms accretion disks around both black...

Gravitational Radiation Driven Supermassive Black Hole Binary Inspirals as Periodically Variable Electromagnetic Sources

Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) produced in galaxy mergers are thought to complete their coalescence, at separations r ∼ < rGW ≈ 10 (MBH/10M⊙) pc, as their orbit decays due to the emission of gravitational waves (GWs). Here we propose that it may be possible to identify such GW–driven inspirals statistically in a deep electromagnetic (EM) survey for variable sources, before the Laser ...

Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger

This cataclysmic event, producing the gravitational-wave signal GW150914, took place in a distant galaxy more than one billion light years from the Earth. It was observed on September 14, 2015 by the two detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), arguably the most sensitive scientific instruments ever constructed. LIGO estimated that the peak gravitational-wave...
