Stellar dynamics around a massive black hole – II. Resonant relaxation [PDF]
, 2015 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 Gilbert (1968) to include the Keplerian field of a black hole of mass $M_\bullet$

Stellar dynamics around a massive black hole – I. Secular collisionless theory [PDF]
, 2015 We present a theory in three parts, of the secular dynamics of a (Keplerian) stellar system of mass $M$ orbiting a black hole of mass $M_\bullet \gg M$.

Dynamics of Dwarf Galaxies Disfavor Stellar-Mass Black Holes as Dark Matter. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2017 We study the effects of black hole dark matter on the dynamical evolution of stars in dwarf galaxies. We find that mass segregation leads to a depletion of stars in the center of dwarf galaxies and the appearance of a ring in the projected stellar ...

MODEST-1: Integrating stellar evolution and stellar dynamics [PDF]
New Astronomy, 2003 We summarize the main results from MODEST-1, the first workshop on MOdeling DEnse STellar systems. Our goal is to go beyond traditional population synthesis models, by introducing dynamical interactions between single stars, binaries, and multiple systems.

Chaotic Dynamics of Stellar Spin in Binaries and the Production of Misaligned Hot Jupiters
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 Motivated by observed hot Jupiter systems with high stellar obliquities, we examine the dynamics of stellar spin in planetary systems with distant stellar companions, with inclinations sufficiently high so that the planet undergoes Kozai-Lidov ...

Wrinkles in Time. I. Rapid Rotators Found in High-eccentricity Orbits
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Recent space-based missions have ushered in a new era of observational astronomy, where high-cadence photometric light curves for thousands to millions of stars in the solar neighborhood can be used to test and apply stellar age-dating methods, including

On Cluster Rotation in the Galactic Tidal Field
Open Astronomy, 2014 The dynamics of a rotating star cluster moving along a circular orbit in the axisymmetrical steady Galaxy is considered. The generalized tensor virial theorem allows to estimate its rotation speed.
