Rotating black holes can produce superradiant clouds of ultralight bosons. When the black
hole is part of a binary system, its cloud can undergo resonances and ionization. These …

LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, will usher in a new era in gravitational-wave
astronomy. As the first anticipated space-based gravitational-wave detector, it will expand …

The adiabatic growth of a central massive black hole could compress the surrounding dark
matter halo, leading to a steeper profile of the dark matter halo. This phenomenon is called …

When particle dark matter is bound gravitationally around a massive black hole in sufficiently
high densities, the dark matter will affect the rate of inspiral of a secondary compact object …

In this study, we look into binaries undergoing gravitational radiation during a hyperbolic
passage. Such hyperbolic events can be a credible source of gravitational waves in future …

Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals consist of binary systems of compact objects, with orders of
magnitude differences in their masses, in the regime where the dynamics are driven by …

Using an analytic, static, and spherically symmetric metric for a Schwarzschild black hole
immersed in a dark matter (DM) halo with the Hernquist-type profile, we derive analytic …

We consider the intermediate mass-ratio inspiral of a stellar-mass compact object with an
intermediate-mass black hole that is surrounded by a dark matter density spike. The …

Real extreme/intermediate-mass ratio inspiral (E/IMRI) systems are likely to contain large
accretion discs which could be as massive as the central supermassive black hole …

Extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs), where a small compact object inspirals into a
supermassive black hole, are excellent sources for the space-based laser interferometer …
