3 Unravelling stellar black hole subsystems in Globular Clusters Arca Sedda, Askar & Giersz, 2018, MNRAS Askar, Arca Sedda & Giersz, 2018, MNRAS BHs modelling and observations: a timeline - BHs segregate and form an indefinitely contracting system (Spitzer instability, Spitzer 1987) - Mass function makes segregation much more complex (Vishniac 1978; Trenti & Van der Marel 2013) - BHs are all ejected from the cluster due to strong encounters (Kulkarni et al. 1993; Sigurdsson & Hernquist 1993; Portegies Zwart & McMillan 2000) - Discovery of the first BH in a binary ~100 retained BHs per GC (Maccarone et al. 2007; Strader et al. 2011; Giesers et al. 2018) - Retained BHs fraction larger than previously thought (Morscher et al. 2015; Peuten et al. 2016; Arca Sedda 2016) - How do many BHs evolve in a dense cluster? 2 mass population (Breen & Heggie 2013; Arca Sedda, Askar & Giersz 2018; Askar, Arca Sedda & Giersz 2018) 3

The MOCCA SURVEY DATABASE: over 2000 Monte Carlo models of Globular clusters with different properties What did we select? Our subsample consists of GC models retaining N>10 BHs at 12 Gyr How did we define a Black Hole Subsystem (BHS)? We define the typical BHS radius as that enclosing half mass in BHs and the remaining in stars: BHS mass: BHS density: 4
