Merger remnant and eccentricity dynamics surrogates for eccentric nonspinning black hole binaries

Accurate models of merger remnants are increasingly important for gravitational-wave science, including precision tests of gravity with ringdown, inference of black-hole populations, and modeling hierarchical mergers. For eccentric binaries, remnant mass, spin, and recoil carry nontrivial imprints of eccentricity that are both physically informative and more challenging to model, yet remain less…
