A self-lensing binary massive black hole interpretation of quasi-periodic eruptions

Binary supermassive black hole (SMBH) systems result from galaxy mergers, and will eventually coalesce due to gravitational wave (GW) emission if the binary separation can be reduced to . 0.1 pc by other mechanisms. Here, we explore a gravitational self-lensing binary SMBH model for the sharp (durat...
