On the Likely Dynamical Origin of GW191109 and Binary Black Hole Mergers with Negative Effective Spin
With the growing number of binary black hole (BBH) mergers detected by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA, several systems have become difficult to explain via isolated binary evolution, having components in the pair-instability mass gap, high orbital eccentricities, and/or spin–orbit misalignment. Here we focus on G...
