A numerical study of vector resonant relaxation
Bence Kocsis, Scott Tremaine
Stars bound to a supermassive black hole interact gravitationally. Persistent torques acting between stellar orbits lead to the rapid resonant relaxation of the orbital orientation…

Stars as resonant absorbers of gravitational waves
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford, B. Kocsis +1
Quadrupole oscillation modes in stars can resonate with incident gravitational waves (GWs), and grow non-linear at the expense of GW energy. Stars near massive black hole binaries…

Detecting gravitational waves from the galactic center with Pulsar Timing
Alak Ray, Bence Kocsis, Simon Portegies Zwart
Black holes orbiting the Super Massive Black Hole (SMBH) Sgr A* in the Milky-way galaxy center (GC) generate gravitational waves. The spectrum, due to stars and black holes, is con…
