Migration Traps in Disks Around Supermassive Black Holes
Jillian Bellovary, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Barry McKernan +1
Accretion disks around supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in active galactic nuclei contain stars, stellar mass black holes, and other stellar remnants, which perturb the disk gas gr…
Black Hole Starvation and Bulge Evolution in a Milky Way-like Galaxy
Silvia Bonoli, Lucio Mayer, Stelios Kazantzidis +3
We present a new zoom-in hydrodynamical simulation, "Erisbh", which follows the cosmological evolution and feedback effects of a supermassive black hole at the center of a Milky Wa…
A comparison of black hole growth in galaxy mergers with Gasoline and Ramses
J. M. Gabor, Pedro R. Capelo, Marta Volonteri +4
Supermassive black hole dynamics during galaxy mergers is crucial in determining the rate of black hole mergers and cosmic black hole growth. As simulations achieve higher resoluti…
Growing black holes and galaxies: black hole accretion versus star formation rate
Marta Volonteri, Pedro R. Capelo, Hagai Netzer +3
We present a new suite of hydrodynamical simulations and use it to study, in detail, black hole and galaxy properties. The high time, spatial and mass resolution, and realistic orb…
Black hole accretion versus star formation rate: theory confronts observations
Marta Volonteri, Pedro R. Capelo, Hagai Netzer +3
We use a suite of hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy mergers to compare star formation rate (SFR) and black hole accretion rate (BHAR) for galaxies before the interaction ('stoch…
