Radial orbit instability as a dissipation-induced phenomenon

arXiv:1003.2354 · doi:10.1111/j.1365-2966.2010.16663.x

Abstract

This paper is devoted to Radial Orbit Instability in the context of self-gravitating dynamical systems. We present this instability in the new frame of Dissipation-Induced Instability theory. This allows us to obtain a rather simple proof based on energetics arguments and to clarify the associated physical mechanism.
