The authors show that the slow accumulation of mass at the centre of a collisionless stellar system enhances the tangential components of velocity dispersion more than the radial component. However, for an initially isothermal distribution function, the tangentially biased velocity anisotropy that develops in this way does not penetrate to the very centre, where it is generated.
