Massive black hole binaries in gaseous nuclear discs
M. Dotti, M. Colpi, F. Haardt +1
We study the evolution of a massive black hole pair in a rotationally supported nuclear disc. The distributions of stars and gas mimic the nuclear region of a gas-rich galaxy merge…

Birth of massive black hole binaries
M. Colpi, M. Dotti, L. Mayer +1
If massive black holes (BHs) are ubiquitous in galaxies and galaxies experience multiple mergers during their cosmic assembly, then BH binaries should be common albeit temporary fe…

Supermassive black hole binaries in gaseous and stellar circumnuclear discs: orbital dynamics and gas accretion
M. Dotti, M. Colpi, F. Haardt +1
The dynamics of two massive black holes in a rotationally supported nuclear disc of 10^8 solar masses is explored using N-Body/SPH simulations. Gas and star particles are co-presen…
