Neutron Star–Black Hole Binaries: Predictions and Observations
Debatri Chattopadhyay
Northwestern University
Neutron star–black hole (NS–BH) binaries have emerged as key targets for multi-messenger astrophysics following the first gravitational wave detections of such systems. In this talk, I present population synthesis predictions for the Galactic NS–BH population, models that interpret the first observed mergers, and forecasts for future radio, gravitational-wave, and electromagnetic discoveries.
