Structure and dynamics of galaxies with a low surface brightness disc. I. The stellar and ionised-gas kinematics
A. Pizzella, E. M. Corsini, M. Sarzi +5
(abridged) Photometry and long-slit spectroscopy are presented for a sample of 6 galaxies with a low surface brightness stellar disc and a bulge. The stellar and ionised-gas kinema…
Tidal Disruption of Stellar Objects by Hard Supermassive Black Hole Binaries
Xian Chen, F. K. Liu, John Magorrian
Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) are expected by the hierarchical galaxy formation model in CDM cosmology. There is some evidence in the literature for SMBHBs in AGNs,…
Multi-mass schemes for collisionless N-body simulations
Mimi Zhang, John Magorrian
We present a general scheme for constructing Monte Carlo realizations of equilibrium, collisionless galaxy models with known distribution function (DF) f_0. Our method uses importa…
Dynamical modelling of luminous and dark matter in 17 Coma early-type galaxies
J. Thomas, R. P. Saglia, R. Bender +5
Dynamical models for 17 Coma early-type galaxies are presented. The galaxy sample consists of flattened, rotating as well as non-rotating early-types including cD and S0 galaxies w…
Grommet: an N-body code for high-resolution simulations of individual galaxies
John Magorrian
This paper presents a fast, economical particle-multiple-mesh N-body code optimized for large-N modelling of collisionless dynamical processes, such as black-hole wandering or bar-…
Constraining black hole masses from stellar kinematics by summing over all possible distribution functions
John Magorrian
When faced with the task of constraining a galaxy's potential given limited stellar kinematical information, what is the best way of treating the galaxy's unknown distribution func…
