A 70Msun BH was discovered in Milky Way disk in a long period and almost circular detached binary system (LB-1) with a high metallicity 8Msun B star companion. Current consensus on the formation of BHs from high metallicity stars limits the black hole mass to be below 20Msun. Using simple evolutionary model, we show that the formation of a 70Msun BH in high metallicity environment is possible if stellar wind mass loss rates are reduced by factor of 5. As observations indicate, a fraction of massive stars have surface magnetic fields which may quench the wind mass-loss, independently of stellar mass and metallicity. We also computed detailed stellar evolution models and we confirm such a scenario. A non-rotating 85Msun model at Z=0.014 with decreased winds ends up as a 71Msun star prior core-collapse with a 32Msun helium core and a 28Msun CO core. Such star avoids pair-instability pulsation supernova mass loss and may form a 70Msun BH in the direct collapse. Stars that can form such BHs expand to significant size with radius of R>600Rsun, exceeding the size of LB-1 orbit. Therefore, we can explain the formation of BHs upto 70Msun at high metallicity and this result is independent from LB-1. However, if LB-1 hosts a massive BH we are unable to explain how such a binary star system could have formed without invoking some exotic scenarios.
It is speculated that a merger of two massive stellar-origin BHs in a dense stellar environment may lead to the formation of a massive BH in the pair-instability mass gap (50-135 Msun). Such a merger-formed BH is expected to typically have a high spi
LIGO has detected gravitational waves from massive binary black hole mergers. In order to explain the origin of such massive stellar-mass black holes, extreme metal poor stars including first stars have been invoked. However, black holes do not carry
We review the main physical processes that lead to the formation of stellar binary black holes (BBHs) and to their merger. BBHs can form from the isolated evolution of massive binary stars. The physics of core-collapse supernovae and the process of c
The gravitational-wave signal GW190521 is consistent with a binary black hole merger source at redshift 0.8 with unusually high component masses, $85^{+21}_{-14},M_{odot}$ and $66^{+17}_{-18},M_{odot}$, compared to previously reported events, and sho
We find that the formation of MWC 656 (the first Be binary containing a black hole) involves a common envelope phase and a supernova explosion. This result supports the idea that a rapidly rotating Be star can emerge out of a common envelope phase, w
