Electromagnetic signals following stellar-mass black hole mergers

SE De Mink, A King - The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
It is often assumed that gravitational-wave (GW) events resulting from the merger of stellar-

Single progenitor model for GW150914 and GW170104

DJ D'Orazio, A Loeb - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
The merger of stellar-mass black holes (BHs) is not expected to generate detectable
electromagnetic (EM) emission. However, the gravitational wave (GW) events GW150914 …

Charged compact binary coalescence signal and electromagnetic counterpart of plunging black hole–neutron star mergers

B Zhang - The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
If at least one of the members of a compact binary coalescence is charged, the inspiral of the
two members would generate a Poynting flux with an increasing power, giving rise to a brief …
