Exotic binaries in Galactic globular clusters: identification, classification, and their formation
DownloadFall 2021
Globular clusters (GCs) are dense and massive stellar populations, which provide a unique environment where the high stellar density facilitates frequent dynamical encounters, creating many exotic binaries. These exotic binaries generally have short orbits and often harbour compact objects,...

Spring 2021
I present the formation and evolution of the shock wave driven by neutrino losses in failed core-collapse supernovae that form black holes (BHs). Neutrino losses result in a decrease in the gravitational mass, which leads to the formation of an outward shock. The ejected mass and energy vary...
