Efficient mass transfer in binaries naturally limits the mass of the first-born black hole and produces a sharp drop above 45 solar masses that mimics the pair-instability gap.
Reduces elliptic triple outcome model to one free parameter, matches N-body simulations except at low angular momentum, and finds observably eccentric merger fractions of 2.6-4.4% in 10^5-10^7 solar mass clusters.
Cosmic Explorer is described as a next-generation gravitational-wave observatory aiming for tenfold sensitivity improvement over Advanced LIGO to observe signals from the edge of the observable universe at z~100.
