| Abstract: |
We present preliminary results of the application of a new sophisticated
code which allows high precision integration of orbits of stars belonging
to a dense stellar system moving in the vicinity of a massive black hole.
This mimics the situation observed in the center of many galaxies, where a nuclear star
cluster contains a massive black hole which, in the past, was, likely, an active engine
of violent emission of radiation. The main scope of our work is the
investigation of the relaxation of the super star cluster on a
sufficiently long time, together with the investigation of its
feedback with the massive black hole. |
