In several previous investigations we presented models of triaxial stellar systems, both cuspy and non cuspy, that were highly stable and harboured large fractions of chaotic orbits. All our models had been obtained through cold collapses…

We add to the lore of spherical, stellar-system models a two-parameter family with an anisotropic velocity dispersion, and a central point mass (``black hole''). The ratio of the tangential to radial dispersions, is constant--and…
