Taming the plunge: A circularization trap of supermassive black hole binaries
Pau Amaro Seoane, Alessandra Mastrobuono Battisti, Chingis Omarov +5
We investigate the orbital eccentricity evolution of supermassive black hole binaries within galactic environments. We analyze the dynamics in triaxial merger remnants and subseque…
Prograde and retrograde stars in nuclear cluster mergers. Evolution of the supermassive black hole binary and the host galactic nucleus
Alessandra Mastrobuono-Battisti, Pau Amaro Seoane, Màrius Josep Fullana i Alfonso +5
We address the orbital distribution of stars in merging nuclear star clusters (NSCs) and the subsequent effects on supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) evolution. We ran direct-s…
Milky Way globular clusters on cosmological timescales. III. Interaction rates
Maryna Ishchenko, Margaryta Sobolenko, Peter Berczik +4
Aims. We carry out the self-consistent dynamic evolution of the orbital structure of Milky Way globular clusters. This allows us to estimate possible and probable close passages an…
Intermediate-mass ratio inspirals in merging elliptical galaxies
Verónica Vázquez-Aceves, Pau Amaro Seoane, Dana Kuvatova +3
Close encounters between two initially unbound objects can result in a binary system if enough energy is released as gravitational waves (GWs). We address the scenario in which suc…
The stability of stellar disks in Milky-Way sized dark matter halos
Denis Yurin, Volker Springel
We employ an improved methodology to insert live stellar disks into high-resolution dark matter simulations of Milky Way sized halos, allowing us to investigate the fate of thin st…
