Scattering experiments meet N-body I: a practical recipe for the evolution of massive black hole binaries in stellar environments
Alberto Sesana, Fazeel Mahmood Khan
The N-independence observed in the evolution of massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) in recent simulation of merging stellar bulges suggests a simple interpretation beyond complex t…
