Numerical models have benefited from input from the collaboration HORIZON, and we thank F. Combes and R. Teyssier. We thank J. Braine, P. Weilbacher, I. Grenier, Y. Revas, F. Boulanger, and F. Hammer for valuable comments on the dynamical analysis and/or general results. We made use of data from the Digitized Sky Survey, produced at the Space Telescope Science Institute under U.S. Government grant NAG W-2166.
