Dynamical Friction, Buoyancy and Core-Stalling -- I. A Non-perturbative Orbit-based Analysis
Uddipan Banik, Frank C. van den Bosch
We examine the origin of dynamical friction using a non-perturbative, orbit-based approach. Unlike the standard perturbative approach, in which dynamical friction arises from the L…

A Self-Consistent, Time-Dependent Treatment of Dynamical Friction: New Insights regarding Core Stalling and Dynamical Buoyancy
Uddipan Banik, Frank C. van den Bosch
Dynamical friction is typically regarded a secular process, in which the subject ('perturber') evolves very slowly (secular approximation), and has been introduced to the host over…
