Chaotic Mixing in Galactic Dynamics
摘要
This talk summarises what is currently understood about the phenomenon that has come to be known as {\it chaotic mixing}. The first part presents a concise statement as to what chaotic mixing actually is, and then explains why it should be important in galactic dynamics. The second discusses in detail what is currently known, describing the manifestations of chaotic mixing both for flows in time-independent Hamiltonian systems and for systems subjected to comparatively weak time-dependent perturbations. The third part discusses what one might expect if one were to allow for a strongly time-dependent potential, including possible implications for violent relaxation.
