The upper edge of the PISN black hole mass gap shifts by up to 30 solar masses due to nuclear reaction rate uncertainties, primarily the 12C(α,γ)16O rate, while remaining robust to resolution variations unlike the lower edge.

LILA can detect IMBH binaries at redshifts 20-30, IMRIs, and provide months-to-years early warnings with high-SNR events for gravity tests.
Stellar models show that the 12C(alpha,gamma)16O rate uncertainty moves the black hole mass gap, constraining its S300 to 137.6-263.4 keV barn when matched to the observed gap from gravitational waves.
