The relativistic Pythagorean three-body problem

Tjarda C. N. Boekholt, Arend Moerman, Simon F. Portegies Zwart

We study the influence of relativity on the chaotic properties and dynamical outcomes of an unstable triple system; the Pythagorean three-body problem. To this end, we extend the B…

Effect of mass loss due to stellar winds on the formation of supermassive black hole seeds in dense nuclear star clusters

Arpan Das, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Shantanu Basu +1

The observations of high redshifts quasars at have revealed that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of mass were already in place within…

Stellar collisions in flattened and rotating Pop. III star clusters

M. Z. C. Vergara, D. R. G. Schleicher, T. C. N. Boekholt +4

Fragmentation often occurs in disk-like structures, both in the early Universe and in the context of present-day star formation. Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are astrophysical…

Formation of supermassive black hole seeds in nuclear star clusters via gas accretion and runaway collisions

Arpan Das, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Nathan W. C. Leigh +1

More than two hundred supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of masses have been discovered at . One promising pathway for the formation o…

Formation of SMBH seeds in Pop III star clusters through collisions : the importance of mass loss

P. J. Alister Seguel, D. R. G. Schleicher, T. C. N. Boekholt +2

Runaway collisions in dense clusters may lead to the formation of supermassive black hole (SMBH) seeds, and this process can be further enhanced by accretion, as recent models of S…

Formation of massive black holes via collisions and accretion

D. R. G. Schleicher, M. A. Fellhauer, T. Boekholt +13

To explain the observed population of supermassive black holes at z~7, very massive seed black holes or, alternatively, super-Eddington scenarios are needed to reach final masses o…
