The tidal effects of disruption and merger of a massive perturber-quasar on a galaxy cluster have been studied by computer simulations using Aarseth's NBODY2 code. The model consists of a spherical N-body galaxy cluster and a point-mass perturber. A wide range of initial conditions (mass ratio of the galaxy and the perturber, the virial coefficient q of the N-body system, and the pericentric distances of orbits) have been considered.
