authors
reviewer:will-blair
Tidal spin-up of black holes in tight pre-merger binaries (orbital period < 1 day) can increase χ by ~0.1–0.3 relative to natal values during the final inspiral.

vev_f942529f90df9a9bfinding.caveatedVerifier caution: Tidal spin-up claim (Δχ ~ 0.1–0.3) lacks specific citation. While tidal torques in binaries are well-studied, the quantitative claim of 0.1–0.3 increase cannot be verified.
