Recoiling Black Holes: Electromagnetic Signatures, Candidates, and Astrophysical Implications by S. Komossa

“…This is a prediction of numerical relativity simulations, which imply that the newly formed single SMBH, after binary coalescence in a galaxy merger, can receive kick velocities up to several 1000 km/s due to anisotropic emission of gravitational waves. …”
