Generation of massive stellar black holes by rapid gas accretion in primordial dense clusters
Zacharias Roupas, Demosthenes Kazanas
Supernova theory suggests that black holes of a stellar origin cannot attain masses in the range of 50-135 solar masses in isolation. We argue here that this mass gap is filled in…

Statistical Mechanics of Gravitational Systems with Regular Orbits: Rigid Body Model of Vector Resonant Relaxation
Zacharias Roupas
I consider a self-gravitating, N-body system assuming that the N constituents follow regular orbits about the center of mass of the cluster, where a central massive object may be p…
