Phys. Rev. Lett. 76, 1409–1412 (1996)Chaos around a Hénon-Heiles-Inspired Exact Perturbation of a Black HoleSee Also: Erratum Received 9 November 1995; published in the issue dated 26 February 1996 A solution of the Einstein equations that represents the superposition of a Schwarzschild black hole with both quadrupolar and octopolar terms describing a halo is exhibited. We show that this solution, in the Newtonian limit, is an analog to the well known Hénon-Heiles potential. The integrability of orbits of test particles moving around a black hole representing the galactic center is studied and bounded zones of chaotic behavior are found. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
