A new preprint on arXiv investigates the dynamics of a Vlasov gas in an external axisymmetric potential, demonstrating its evolution to an inhomogeneous final state with overdensities. This research, employing N-particle simulations and statistical methods, offers a Newtonian analogy for Kerr orbital motion and contributes to high energy astrophysical phenomena. (Note: This is a preliminary finding and has not yet been peer-reviewed.)
