Intermediate-mass black holes
JE Greene, J Strader, LC Ho - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2020 - annualreviews.org
We describe ongoing searches for intermediate-mass black holes with M BH≈ 10–105 M⊙.
We review a range of search mechanisms, both dynamical and those that rely on accretion …

Effective Field Theory for Extreme Mass Ratio Binaries
C Cheung, J Parra-Martinez, IZ Rothstein, N Shah… - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We derive an effective field theory describing a pair of gravitationally interacting point
particles in an expansion in their mass ratio, also known as the self-force (SF) expansion …

Detecting massive scalar fields with extreme mass-ratio inspirals
We study the imprint of light scalar fields on gravitational waves from extreme mass-ratio
inspirals—binary systems with a very large mass asymmetry. We first show that, to leading …

Extreme mass-ratio inspirals into black holes surrounded by scalar clouds
R Brito, S Shah - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We study extreme mass-ratio binary systems in which a stellar mass compact object spirals
into a supermassive black hole surrounded by a scalar cloud. Scalar clouds can form …

The missing link in gravitational-wave astronomy: discoveries waiting in the decihertz range
The gravitational-wave astronomical revolution began in 2015 with LIGO's observation of the
coalescence of two stellar-mass black holes. Over the coming decades, ground-based …
