Bimodal Black Hole Mass Distribution and Chirp Masses of Binary Black Hole Mergers
In binary black hole mergers from isolated binary-star evolution, both black holes are from progenitor stars that have lost their hydrogen-rich envelopes by binary mass transfer. Envelope stripping is known to affect the pre-supernova core structures of such binary-stripped stars and thereby their f...
