Early-growing Supermassive Black Holes Strengthen Bars and Boxy/Peanut Bulges

Early-growing Supermassive Black Holes Strengthen Bars and Boxy/Peanut Bulges

Using N -body simulations, we explore the effects of growing a supermassive black hole (SMBH) prior to or during the formation of a stellar bar. Keeping the final mass and growth rate of the SMBH fixed, we show that if it is introduced before or while the bar is still growing, the SMBH does not caus...
