Star cluster disruption by a massive black hole binary
Elisa Bortolas, Michela Mapelli, Mario Spera
Massive black hole binaries (BHBs) are expected to form as the result of galaxy mergers; they shrink via dynamical friction and stellar scatterings, until gravitational waves (GWs)…
Dynamics of supernova remnants in the Galactic Centre
Elisa Bortolas, Michela Mapelli, Mario Spera
The Galactic centre (GC) is a unique place to study the extreme dynamical processes occurring near a super-massive black hole (SMBH). Here we simulate a large set of binaries orbit…
Brownian motion of massive black hole binaries and the final parsec problem
E. Bortolas, A. Gualandris, M. Dotti +2
Massive black hole binaries (BHBs) are expected to be one of the most powerful sources of gravitational waves (GWs) in the frequency range of the pulsar timing array and of forthco…
