Formation of the first nuclear clusters and massive black holes at high redshift
Bernadetta Devecchi, Marta Volonteri
We present a model for the formation of massive black holes ($\sim 1000 \msun$) due to stellar-dynamical processes in the first stellar clusters formed at early cosmic times ($z\si…

Imprints of recoiling massive black-holes on the hot gas of early type galaxies
B. Devecchi, E. Rasia, M. Dotti +2
Anisotropic gravitational radiation from a coalescing black hole binary is known to impart recoil velocities of up to ~1000 km/s to the remnant black hole. In this context, we stud…
