Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017 We study the dynamical evolution of supermassive black holes, in the late stage of galaxy mergers, from kpc to pc scales. In particular, we capture the formation of the binary, a necessary step before the final coalescence, and trace back the main ...H. Pfister, A. Lupi, Pedro R. Capelo, M. Volonteri, J. Bellovary, M.

Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The NANOGrav 15 yr data set shows evidence for the presence of a low-frequency gravitational-wave background (GWB). While many physical processes can source such low-frequency gravitational waves, here we analyze the signal as coming from a population of G. Agazie, A. Anumarlapudi, A. Archibald, P. Baker, B.
