Recoiling Black Holes in Merging Galaxies
Laura Blecha, Thomas J. Cox, Abraham Loeb +1
Gravitational-wave (GW) recoil of merging supermassive black holes (SMBHs) may influence the co-evolution of SMBHs and their host galaxies. We examine this possibility using SPH/N-…
Relation Between Globular Clusters and Supermassive Black Holes in Ellipticals as a Manifestation of the Black Hole Fundamental Plane
Gregory F. Snyder, Philip F. Hopkins, Lars Hernquist
We analyze the relation between the mass of the central supermassive black hole (Mbh) and the number of globular clusters (Ngc) in elliptical galaxies and bulges as a ramification…
Seeding the formation of cold gaseous clouds in Milky Way size halos
Dušan Kereš, Lars Hernquist
We use one of the highest resolution cosmological SPH simulations to date to demonstrate that cold gaseous clouds form around Milky Way size galaxies. We further explore mechanisms…
Color Distributions, Number and Mass Densities of Massive Galaxies at 1.5 < z < 3: Comparing Observations with Merger Simulations
Stijn Wuyts, Marijn Franx, Thomas J. Cox +9
We present a comparison between the observed color distribution, number and mass density of massive galaxies at 1.5 < z < 3 and a model by Hopkins et al. that relates the quasar an…
