Scientific paper

We calculate the conditions in which accretion disks around massive objects can survive tidal disruption during ejection by the gravitational slingshot. The probability that the disks around all the massive objects survive is greatest when the ejection is symmetric. This may produce a tendency for powerful, long-lived double radio galaxies to be nearly symmetric. It also leads to a new observational test.
