Researchers study fast-moving black hole to better understand formation of black hole binaries

UMass Dartmouth Ph.D. students Tousif Islam (lead author) and Feroz H. Shaik, alongside Assistant Professor Vijay Varma and Associate Professor Scott Field (mathematics), recently published findings, on the pre-print server arXiv, that include the identification of a binary black hole system that was most likely formed through dynamical capture and whose collision produced the second fastest-moving black hole observed (denoted GW191109 by astronomers).
