POWERFUL TOOL. “Overall, IMBHs are a fundamental key to understanding the formation, growth, and evolution of SMBHs and of the overall black hole population in the universe. LISA’s ability to detect IMBH mergers across most of cosmic time, combined with the prowess of EM observations, will be sure to answer crucial questions as well as pose new ones.” (IMBHs = intermediate mass black holes; SMBH = supermassive black holes; LISA = The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna; EM = electromagnetic).
