List of cluster merger simulations with two (2MBH), one (1MBH), or no MBH (noMBH) with three cluster orbital eccentricities e (fourth column). The semimajor axis of all merger obits is 2 pc. We also give the masses (|$M_{\mathrm{\bullet ,1}}, M_{\mathrm{\bullet ,2}}$|) of the MBHs as well as the pericentre distance (|$r_{\mathrm{peri}}$|) and velocity (|$v_{\mathrm{peri}}$| ), and the apocentre velocity (|$v_{\mathrm{apo}}$|) of the initial star cluster orbits. As the star clusters are not point masses they will not follow this initial orbit but rather merge due to DF. The bottom three simulations (|$\_iso$|) correspond to the isolated set-ups with no, one, and two MBHs with an eccentricity of |$e = 0.5$|.
