The MAVERIC Survey: Still No Evidence for Accreting Intermediate-mass Black Holes in Globular Clusters

We present the results of an ultra-deep, comprehensive radio continuum survey for the accretion signatures of intermediate-mass black holes in globular clusters. The sample, imaged with the Karl G.~Jansky Very Large Array and the Australia Telescope Compact Array, comprises 50 Galactic globular clusters. No compelling evidence for an intermediate-mass black hole is found in any cluster in our sample. In order to achieve the highest sensitivity to low-level emission, we also present the results of an overall stack of our sample, as well as various subsamples, also finding non-detections. These results strengthen the idea that intermediate-mass black holes with masses $\gtrsim 1000 M_{\odot}$ are rare or absent in globular clusters.
