Gravitational Waves Generated by Globular Cluster Systems Collapse
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, P. Miocchi
According to the hypothesis that AGNs are massive black holes and the mass which feeds them is made of stars belonging to globular clusters frictionally decayed and tidally destroy…
Galactic Nuclei Activity Sustained by Globular Cluster Mass Accretion
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, P. Miocchi
The decay of globular clusters to the center of their mother galaxy corresponds to carrying a quantity of mass sufficient to sustain the gravitational activity of a small pre-exist…
A comparison between Fast Multipole Algorithm and Tree-Code to evaluate gravitational forces in 3-D
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, P. Miocchi
We present tests of comparison between our versions of the Fast Multipole Algorithm (FMA) and ``classic'' tree-code to evaluate gravitational forces in particle systems. We have op…
Evolution of the Globular Cluster System in a Triaxial Galaxy
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, A. Tesseri
Dynamical friction and tidal disruption are effective mechanisms of evolution of globular cluster systems, especially in non-axysimmetric galaxies with a central compact nucleus. W…
The globular cluster distributions in the Galaxy, M31 and M87: are many globulars disappeared to the galactic centres?
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, L. Vignola
The radial distribution of globular clusters in our Galaxy, M31 and M87 is studied and compared with that of halo stars. The globular cluster distributions seem significantly flatt…
