Star Clusters Around Recoiled Black Holes in the Milky..

Gravitational wave emission by coalescing black holes (BHs) kicks the remnantBH with a typical velocity of hundreds of km s−1 . This velocity is sufficiently large toremove the remnant BH from a low-mass galaxy but is below the escape velocity fromthe Milky Way (MW) galaxy. If central BHs were common in the galactic buildingblocks ...
