Relativistic Stellar Dynamics Around a Massive Black Hole in Steady State

Astrophysics of Galaxies 2015-05-20 v1 High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena

Abstract

I briefly review advances in the understanding and modeling of relativistic stellar dynamics around massive black holes (MBHs) in galactic nuclei, following the inclusion of coherent relaxation and of secular processes in a new formal analytic description of the dynamics.
