Effect of mass-loss due to stellar winds on the formation of supermassive black hole seeds in dense nuclear star clusters
The observations of high-redshifts quasars at z ≳ 6 have revealed that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of mass ∼109M⊙∼109M⊙ were already in place within the first ∼Gyr after the big bang. Supermassive stars (SMSs) with masses 103−5M⊙103−5M⊙ are potential seeds for these observed SMBHs. A possible f...
