MAGICS. II. Seed Black Holes Stripped of Their Surrounding Stars Do Not Sink

Massive black hole (MBH) seed mergers are expected to be among the loudest sources of gravitational waves detected by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, providing a unique window into the birth and early growth of MBHs. We present the MAGICS-II simulation suite, which consists of six galaxy mer...
