Repeated mergers, mass-gap black holes, and formation of intermediate-mass black holes in dense massive star clusters
<p>Current theoretical models predict a mass gap with a dearth of stellar black holes (BHs) between roughly 50 <em>M</em><sub>⊙</sub> and 100 <em>M</em><sub>⊙</sub>, while above the range accessible through massive star evolution, intermediate-ma...
