Some dynamical properties of anisotropic collisionless stellar systems

  • 1. Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa (Italy)

Description

The linear stability analysis of collisionless anisotropic spherical stellar systems presents many unresolved issues. Planning to study the stability of a simple and astrophysically interesting equilibrium seuence ∞ for such stellar systems, we describe here some analytical characterizations of the ∞-distribution functions, formulate the linearized equations for stability, and discuss the relevant boundary conditions.
