Enhanced Black Hole Mergers in Active Galactic Nucleus Disks due to Precession-induced Resonances
Recent studies have shown that active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks can host sources of gravitational waves. Compact binaries can form and merge in AGN disks through their interactions with the gas and other compact objects in the disk. It is also possible for the binaries to shorten the merging time...
