SUMMARY:The challenge of massive black hole binary coalescence; from galaxy formation to gravitational waves
DESCRIPTION:I will review recent progress in understanding how a pair of massive black holes can evolve from galactic scale separations\, kpc and above\, to milliparsec separations\, where gravitational wave emission takes over\nand leads to signals that should be detected by the Laser Interferometer\nSpace Antenna (LISA). I will show how\, contrary to common belief\, the\norbital decay of massive black holes in gaseous environments can be\nless efficient and more stochastic than in stellar backgrounds\, where\nthe only two processes at play are dynamical friction and 3-body\nencounters with passings stars. Novel supercomputer simulations that attempt to study orbital decay in realistic galactic hosts show that coalescence timescales\ncan become very short\, about 10 Myr\, in high redshit massive galaxies that are on their way to become quenched spheroids\, but can be longer than a\nGyr in massive star forming gas-rich disks as those observed at z > 1.\nHosts of LISA black holes are expected to have a different nature. The complex interplay between\nthe physical properties of galactic nuclei and the orbital decay process\nposes a huge challenge to computational model\, but at the same time\nholds the promise for LISA and other gravitational wave detection\nexperiments to become a powerful probe of  galaxy formation and evolution.
