Two of a Kind: Comparing Big and Small Black Holes in Binaries with Gravitational Waves
When modeling the population of merging binary black holes, analyses have generally focused on characterizing the distribution of primary (i.e., more massive) black holes in the binary, while using simplistic prescriptions for the distribution of secondary masses. However, the secondary mass distrib...
