AMALDI RESEARCH CENTER SEMINAR

Title: Merging Black Holes of any Size and Hierarchy
Speaker: Giacomo Fragione
Institution: Hebrew Univ.of Jerusalem
Date: Wednesday, 22 May 2019
Time: 4:00 pm
Location: Aula Conversi, Marconi Building, Dept. of Physics, Sapienza
University

Abstract: The recent discovery of gravitational waves has opened new
horizons for physics. Current and upcoming missions promise to shed light
on black holes of every size, from stellar mass sizes up to supermassive
black holes which reside in galactic nuclei. The astrophysical origin of
these mergers is among the most puzzling open questions of our time. I will
show how the rich dynamics in galactic nuclei and star clusters catalyzes
black hole mergers of any size in hierarchical systems, and make prediction
on their merger rate through cosmic time. Finally, I will also discuss how
LIGO/Virgo, LISA and other instruments will be able to shed light on the
origin of black hole mergers.

Seminario di interesse anche per studenti delle LM 17 e 58 e dei dottorati
in Fisica e Astronomy, Astrophysics and Space Science.
