Even protostars — these are young stars that are just forming and making their own planetary disks and so on — they make very powerful outflows called, the same sort of jets obviously moving at slower speeds, but they are full of plasma, that is flowing out at high speed; white dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes big and small, they seem able to do this task, it really seems to be a very common phenomenon.
Belczynski agrees, saying that if mergers of black hole - neutron star binaries prove to be common, they must arise from systems that don't resemble Cygnus X-1.
Binary black holes are expected to be common in large galaxies, since galaxies are thought to grow by merging with other galaxies, each of which would presumably bring a central black hole with it.
