Galactic merger implications for eccentric nuclear disks: a mechanism for disk alignment
Alexander Rodriguez, Aleksey Generozov, Ann-Marie Madigan
The nucleus of our nearest, large galactic neighbor, M31, contains an eccentric nuclear disk--a disk of stars on eccentric, apsidally-aligned orbits around a supermassive black hol…
Mass ratio, the hills mechanism, and the galactic centre S-stars
Aleksey Generozov
The Galactic centre contains several young populations within its central parsec: a disk between 0.05 and 0.5 pc from the centre, and the isotropic S-star cluster extending a…
A stream of hypervelocity stars from the Galactic Center
Aleksey Generozov
Recent observations have found a 1700 km/s star [S5-HVS1] that was ejected from the Galactic Center approximately five million years ago. This star was likely produced by tidal dis…
The Hills Mechanism and the Galactic Center S-stars
Aleksey Generozov, Ann-Marie Madigan
Our Galactic center contains young stars, including the few million year old clockwise disk between 0.05 and 0.5 pc from the Galactic center, and the S-star cluster of B-type stars…
