Caption: Figure 6.

The regular orbit of a charged particle around a Kerr black hole in a dipolar field. The orbit is characterized by E = 0.885 and L = −7. The initial four-velocity is such that χ = −0.01π. The left panel shows the trajectory in three dimensions. In the right panel, a projection of the orbit in the poloidal plane shows the non-chaotic nature of the trajectory.
