银河系中心黑洞的合并

Merger of Black Holes in the Galactic Center

F. Elliott Koch, Bradley M. S. Hansen

摘要:

我们提出了三个机构模拟的结果,重点是了解中间质量黑洞(IBH)的命运,在中央0.5 pc的银河系内漂移。特别是,我们模拟了$4000 {\rm M}_{\odot}$黑洞对之间的相互作用,因为它们围绕一个中央黑洞的质量$4 \times 10^6 {\rm M}_{\odot}$。进行模拟假设史瓦西几何和帐户Eschrasekhar动力学摩擦,以及由于引力辐射造成的能量损失的加速度。我们发现其中一个IBH与CBH合并的分支比为0.95,并且与内部IBH的初始偏心率以及下沉率无关。再加上IBH漂移到银河系中心的$\sim 10^7 $年的下降率,导致每隔$\lesssim 11$百万年IBH-CBH合并。最后,我们发现IBH-IBH-CBH三体系统"重置“了自己,在这个意义上,一个内部IBH初始轨道为圆形的系统通常会留下一个大偏心率的IBH,而一个内部IBH具有高偏心率的系统($e_0 \sim 0.9$)通常会留下一个低偏心率的残骸。两种情况下不同结局的分支比也相似。

英文摘要:

We present the results of three body simulations focused on understanding the fates of intermediate mass black holes (IBH) that drift within the central 0.5 pc of the Galaxy. In particular, we modeled the interactions between pairs of $4000 {\rm M}_{\odot}$ black holes as they orbit a central blac k hole of mass $4 \times 10^6 {\rm M}_{\odot}$. The simulations performed assume a Schwarzschild geometry and account for Chandrasekhar dynamical friction as well as acceleration resulting from energy lost due to gravitational radiation. We found the branching ratio for one of the orbiting IBHs to merge with the CBH was 0.95 and is independent of the inner IBH's initial eccentricity as well as the rate of sinking. This, coupled with an infall rate of $\sim 10^7 $ yrs for an IBH to drift into the Galactic center, results in an IBH-CBH merger every $\lesssim 11$ Myrs. Lastly we found that the IBH-IBH-CBH triple body system ``resets'' itself, in the sense that a system with an inner I BH with an initially circular orbit generally left behind an IBH with a large eccentricity, whereas a system in which the inner IBH had a high eccentricity ($e_0 \sim 0.9$) usually left a remnant with low eccentricity. Branching ratios for different outcomes are also similar in the two cases.
