MOCCA-SURVEY Database I: Dissolution of tidally filling star clusters harboring black hole subsystem

We investigate the dissolution process of star clusters embedded in an external tidal field and harboring a subsystem of stellar-mass black hole. For this purpose we analyzed the MOCCA models of real star clusters contained in the Mocca Survey Database I. We showed that the presence of a stellar-mass black hole subsystem in tidally filling star cluster can lead to abrupt cluster dissolution connected with the loss of cluster dynamical equilibrium. Such cluster dissolution can be regarded as a third type of cluster dissolution mechanism. We additionally argue that such a mechanism should also work for tidally under-filling clusters with a top-heavy initial mass function.
