The search for the lost attractor
Mario Pasquato, Syphax Haddad, Pierfrancesco Di Cintio +8
N-body systems characterized by inverse square attractive forces may display a self similar collapse known as the gravo-thermal catastrophe. In star clusters, collapse is halted by…
Dynamics of intermediate mass black holes in globular clusters. Wander radius and anisotropy profiles
Pierfrancesco Di Cintio, Mario Pasquato, Luca Barbieri +2
We recently introduced a new method for simulating collisional gravitational N-body systems with approximately linear time scaling with , based on the Multi-Particle Collision (…
Dynamical disruption timescales and chaotic behavior of hierarchical triple systems
Toshinori Hayashi, Alessandro A. Trani, Yasushi Suto
We examine the stability of hierarchical triple systems using direct -body simulations without adopting a secular perturbation approximation. We estimate their disruption timesc…
Compact Binary Coalescences: Astrophysical Processes and Lessons Learned
Mario Spera, Alessandro Alberto Trani, Mattia Mencagli
On 11 February 2016, the LIGO and Virgo scientific collaborations announced the first direct detection of gravitational waves, a signal caught by the LIGO interferometers on 14 Sep…
The impact of metallicity-dependent mass loss versus dynamical heating on the early evolution of star clusters
Alessandro A. Trani, Michela Mapelli, Alessandro Bressan
We have run direct N-body simulations to investigate the impact of stellar evolution and dynamics on the structural properties of young massive (3x10^4 solar masses) star clusters…
