Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), with masses of hundreds to thousands of solar masses, will be unique sources of gravitational waves for LISA. Here we discuss their context as well as specific characteristics of IMBH-IMBH and IMBH-supermassive black hole mergers and how these would allow sensitive tests of the predictions of general relativity in strong gravity.

Evolution of a black hole cluster in full general relativity
gr-qc 2025-05 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

A 25-black-hole cluster evolved in full general relativity undergoes runaway hierarchical merging into a single roughly 22m0 black hole, ejects one member at 0.51c, and produces a gravitational-wave signal with an ecc...
