Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The origin of black hole (BH) binaries, which are gravitational wave sources, was investigated through theoretical research. The main results obtained are as follows: 1)Concerning the formation of isolated massive binary systems, we studied the properties of massive binaries that could form in the low-metallicity environment of the early universe. We found that the first stars can form as massive binary systems with masses ranging from several tens of solar masses. 2) The evolution of low-metallicity binary systems was examined using an analytical model. We demonstrated that there is no contradiction even if all the BH mergers observed through gravitational wave detection originate from isolated binary systems. 3) The formation rate of binary black holes due to dynamic interactions between stars was estimated through gravitational N-body simulations of cluster evolution. We found that even in open clusters, binary black holes can form through the dynamic interactions between stars.
