Extended Data Table 2 Comparison of the observed velocity distribution with N-body models

From: Fast-moving stars around an intermediate-mass black hole in ω Centauri

  1. In this table we report results of the comparison of the observed distribution of 2D velocities with different N-body models (see also Extended Data Fig. 8). The first two columns indicate the relative and absolute mass of the IMBH in the N-body models. The third column shows the total number of stars within 10” of the cluster centre. In the fourth column, we show the results of a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test comparing the measured velocity distribution with the different N-body models. Finally, the last three columns compare the absolute number and the fraction of fast-moving stars in the centremost 3 arcseconds.
