The two phases of core formation -- orbital evolution in the centres of ellipticals with supermassive black hole binaries
Matteo Frigo, Thorsten Naab, Antti Rantala +4
The flat stellar density cores of massive elliptical galaxies form rapidly due to sinking supermassive black holes (SMBH) in gas-poor galaxy mergers. After the SMBHs form a bound b…

Resolving the Complex Evolution of a Supermassive Black Hole Triplet in a Cosmological Simulation
Matias Mannerkoski, Peter H. Johansson, Antti Rantala +2
We present here a self-consistent cosmological zoom-in simulation of a triple supermassive black hole (SMBH) system forming in a complex multiple galaxy merger. The simulation is r…
