Probabilistic eccentricity bifurcation for stars around shrinking massive black hole binaries
Mao Iwasa, Naoki Seto
Based on the secular theory, we discuss the orbital evolution of stars in a nuclear star cluster to which a secondary massive black hole is infalling with vanishing eccentricity. W…

Eccentricity Boost of Stars Around Shrinking Massive Black Hole Binaries
Mao Iwasa, Naoki Seto
Based on a simple geometrical approach, we analyze the evolution of the Kozai-Lidov mechanism for stars around shrinking massive black hole binaries on circular orbits. We find tha…
