Stellar Dynamics around a Massive Black Hole II: Resonant Relaxation
S. Sridhar, Jihad R. Touma
We present a first-principles theory of Resonant Relaxation (RR) of a low mass stellar system orbiting a more massive black hole (MBH). We first extend the kinetic theory of Gilber…

Stellar Dynamics around a Massive Black Hole I: Secular Collisionless Theory
S. Sridhar, Jihad R. Touma
We present a theory in three parts, of the secular dynamics of a (Keplerian) stellar system of mass orbiting a black hole of mass . Here we describe the collis…
