Analytical, Statistical Approximate Solution of Dissipative and Nondissipative Binary-Single Stellar Encounters
We present a statistical approximate solution of the bound, nonhierarchical three-body problem, and extend it to a general analysis of encounters between hard binary systems and single stars. Any such encounter terminates when one of the three stars is ejected to infinity, leaving behind a remnant b...
