The two phases of core formation -- orbital evolution in the centres of ellipticals with supermassive black hole binaries
Matteo Frigo, Thorsten Naab, Antti Rantala +4
The flat stellar density cores of massive elliptical galaxies form rapidly due to sinking supermassive black holes (SMBH) in gas-poor galaxy mergers. After the SMBHs form a bound b…

Intermediate Mass Black Hole Formation in compact Young Massive Star Clusters
Francesco Paolo Rizzuto, Thorsten Naab, Rainer Spurzem +6
Young dense massive star clusters are a promising environment for the formation of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) through collisions. We present a set of 80 simulations carr…
