Relaxation of a Vlasov gas to an inhomogeneous state due to phase space mixing in an axisymmetric potential: A Newtonian analogy of the Kerr orbital motion

Ana Laura García-Perciante, Ana Laura Garc\a'ia-Perciante, Merce Guerrero +3

We explore the dynamics of a Vlasov gas propagating in an external axisymmetric potential consisting of a central potential with an additional quadrupolar component which gives ris…
