Star clusters as tracers of galactic nuclei properties

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present a series of NN-body simulations representing the evolution of a galactic nucleus and its stellar content in a nearly one-to-one representation. The aim of this suite of simulations is to shed light on the interplay between nuclear clusters (NCs), super-massive black holes (SMBH) and the galactic nuclei in which they are contained. We modelled galaxies with masses from few times 10810^8 to 101110^{11} M⊙_\odot, hosting in their nucleus a number of globular clusters and, in some cases, a central SMBH.
