On the Cusp around Central Black Holes in Luminous Elliptical Galaxies
Taro Nakano, Junichiro Makino
In this letter, we show that a massive black hole (MBH) which falls into the center of a galaxy in dynamical timescale leaves a weak cusp () around it, which is…

On the Origin of Density Cusps in Elliptical Galaxies
Taro Nakano, Junichiro Makino
We investigated the dynamical reaction of the central region of galaxies to a falling massive black hole by N-body simulations. As the initial galaxy model, we used an isothermal K…
