Orbit superposition models are a non-parametric dynamical modelling technique to determine the mass of a galaxy's central supermassive black hole (SMBH), its stars, or its dark-matter halo. One of the main problems is how to decide which…
We describe an improved, practical method for constructing galaxy models that match an arbitrary set of observational constraints, without prior assumptions about the phase-space distribution function (DF). Our method is an extension of…
When two bodies get into contact, only a small portion of the apparent area is actually involved in producing contact and friction forces, because of the surface roughnesses. It is therefore crucial to accurately describe the morphology of…
