Observing the Birth of Supermassive Black Holes with the Planned ICECUBE Neutrino Detector
It has been suggested that the supermassive black holes, at the centers of galaxies and quasars, may initially form in single collapses of relativistic star clusters or supermassive stars built up during the evolution of dense star clusters. We show that it may be possible for ICECUBE (a planned 1 k...
