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 …

The quest for dual and binary supermassive black holes: A multi-messenger view
The quest for binary and dual supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the dawn of the multi-
messenger era is compelling. Detecting dual active galactic nuclei (AGN)–active SMBHs at …

Observational evidence for intermediate-mass black holes
M Mezcua - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2017 - World Scientific
Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), with masses in the range 1 0 0–1 0 6 M⊙, are the
link between stellar-mass BHs and supermassive BHs (SMBHs). They are thought to be the …

Hunting for massive black holes in dwarf galaxies
AE Reines - Nature Astronomy, 2022 - nature.com
Despite traditional thinking, an appreciable population of massive black holes (that is, more
massive than stellar-mass black holes) may be lurking in dwarf galaxies. Before the last …

The cosmic evolution of massive black holes in the Horizon-AGN simulation
We analyse the demographics of black holes (BHs) in the large-volume cosmological
hydrodynamical simulation Horizon-AGN. This simulation statistically models how much gas …
