Dynamics of Triaxial Stellar Systems
Recent work on the dynamics of triaxial stellar systems is reviewed. The motion of boxlike orbits in realistic triaxial potentials is generically stochastic. The degree to which the stochasticity manifests itself in the dynamics depends on the chaotic mixing timescale, which is a small multiple of the crossing time in triaxial models with steep cusps or massive central singularities. Low-lumino...
متن کاملAn Analytical Model for the Triaxial Collapse of Cosmological Perturbations
We present an analytical model for the non-spherical collapse of overdense regions out of a Gaussian random field of initial cosmological perturbations. The collapsing region is treated as an ellipsoid of constant density, acted upon by the quadrupole tidal shear from the surrounding matter. The dynamics of the ellipsoid is set by the ellipsoid self-gravity and the external quadrupole shear. Bo...
متن کاملPhase-Space Evolution of Dark Matter Halos
Context. In a Universe dominated by dark matter, halos are continuously accreting mass (violently or not) and such mechanism affects their dynamical state. Aims. The evolution of dark matter halos in phase-space, and using the phase-space density indicator Q = ρ/σ as a tracer, is discussed. Methods. We have performed cosmological N-body simulations from which we have carried a detailed study of...
متن کاملDynamics as Shadow of Phase Space Geometry
Starting with the generally well accepted opinion that quantizing an arbitrary Hamiltonian system involves picking out some additional structure on the classical phase space (the shadow of quantummechanics in the classical theory), we describe classical as well as quantum dynamics as a purely geometrical effect by introducing a phase space metric structure. This produces an O(h̄) modification of...
متن کاملPhase-space Lagrangian dynamics of incompressible thermofluids
Phase-space Lagrangian dynamics in ideal fluids (i.e, continua) is usually related to the so-called ideal tracer particles. The latter, which can in principle be permitted to have arbitrary initial velocities, are understood as particles of infinitesimal size which do not produce significant perturbations of the fluid and do not interact among themselves. An unsolved theoretical problem is the ...
