Consequences of Triaxiality for Gravitational Wave Recoil of black holes
Alessandro Vicari, Roberto Capuzzo-Dolcetta, David Merritt
Coalescing binary black holes experience a ``kick'' due to anisotropic emission of gravitational waves with an amplitude as great as 200$ km/s. We examine the orbital evolution of…
Self-consistent models of cuspy triaxial galaxies with dark matter haloes
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, L. Leccese, D. Merritt +1
We have constructed realistic, self-consistent models of triaxial elliptical galaxies embedded in triaxial dark matter haloes. We examined three different models for the shape of t…
Merging of globular clusters within inner galactic regions. I. Do they survive the tidal interaction?
P. Miocchi, R. Capuzzo Dolcetta, P. Di Matteo +1
The main topic of this paper is the investigation of the modes of interaction of globular clusters (GCs) moving in the inner part of a galaxy. This is tackled by means of high-reso…
Large scale star formation in galaxies. II. The spirals NGC 3377A, NGC 3507 and NGC 4394
A. Vicari, P. Battinelli, R. Capuzzo--Dolcetta +2
The identification of young star groupings (YSG) in the three spiral galaxies NGC 3377A, NGC 3507, NGC 4394 is obtained by mean of the statistical method described in Paper I. We f…
Application of an objective method for the identification of Young Star Groupings in spiral galaxies
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, A. Vicari, P. Battinelli +1
We present some results of the application of our automatic technique for the identification of Young Star Groupings (YSGs) in spiral galaxies. In this report we discuss our new re…
Large scale star formation in galaxies. I. The spirals NGC 7217, NGC 1058 and UGC 12732
P. Battinelli, R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, P. W. Hodge +2
We present multiband photometric observations of three spiral galaxies selected in a sample suited for the study of young stellar groupings and their relationship with the parent g…
