Supermassive black holes (BHs) have been found in 85 galaxies by dynamical modeling of
spatially resolved kinematics. The Hubble Space Telescope revolutionized BH research by …

Dynamical searches reveal central dark objects with masses $\sim 10^ 6$ to $10^{9.5}
$\msun in the Galaxy,\m31,\mm32, M87, NGC 3115, NGC 3377, NGC 4258, and NGC 4594 …

We use the Aquarius simulations to show that the most massive subhaloes in galaxy-mass
dark matter (DM) haloes in Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) are grossly inconsistent with the …

We construct dynamical models for a sample of 36 nearby galaxies with Hubble Space
Telescope (HST) photometry and ground-based kinematics. The models assume that each …

We investigate the well-known correlations between the dynamical mass-to-light ratio (M/L)
and other global observables of elliptical (E) and lenticular (S0) galaxies. We construct two …

We discuss the architecture and design principles that underpin the latest version of SKIRT,
a state-of-the-art open source code for simulating continuum radiation transfer in dusty …

I present a general family of dynamical models with simple analytical potential-density pairs
suited to modelling galactic bulges and nuclei with double power-law radial density profiles …

We investigate a model in which galactic nuclei form via the coalescence of preexisting
stellar systems containing supermassive black holes. Merger simulations are carried out …

We present a simple and efficient anisotropic generalization of the semi-isotropic (two-
integral) axisymmetric Jeans formalism, which is used to model the stellar kinematics of …

Extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) are important sources for space-borne gravitational
wave detectors, such as the laser interferometer space antenna and TianQin. Previous EMRI …
