Dynamics of galactic nuclei: Mass segregation and collisions
Marc Freitag, James E. Dale, Ross P. Church +1
Massive black holes (MBHs) with a mass below ~ 1e7 Msun are likely to reside at the centre of dense stellar nuclei shaped by 2-body relaxation, close interactions with the MBH and…
The MODEST questions: challenges and future directions in stellar cluster research
Melvyn B. Davies, Pau Amaro-Seoane, Cees Bassa +7
We present a review of some of the current major challenges in stellar cluster research, including young clusters, globular clusters, and galactic nuclei. Topics considered include…
Models of mass segregation at the Galactic centre
Marc Freitag, Pau Amaro-Seoane, Vassiliki Kalogera
We study the process of mass segregation through 2-body relaxation in galactic nuclei with a central massive black hole (MBH). This study has bearing on a variety of astrophysical…
