Chaotic scattering is an important topic in nonlinear dynamics and chaos with applications in several fields in physics and engineering. The study of this phenomenon in relativistic systems has received little attention as compared to the Newtonian case. Here we focus our work on the study of some relevant characteristics of the exit basin topology in the relativistic Hénon-Heiles system: the uncertainty dimension, the Wada property, and the basin entropy. Our main findings for the uncertainty dimension show two different behaviors insofar as we change the relativistic parameter β, in which a crossover behavior is uncovered. This crossover point is related with the disappearance of KAM islands in phase space, which happens for velocity values above the ultrarelativistic limit, v>0.1c. This result is supported by numerical simulations and by qualitative analysis, which are in good agreement. On the other hand, the computation of the exit basins in the phase space suggests the existence of Wada basins for a range of β<0.625. We also studied the evolution of the exit basins in a quantitative manner by computing the basin entropy, which shows a maximum value for β≈0.2. This last quantity is related to the uncertainty in the prediction of the final fate of the system. Finally, our work is relevant in galactic dynamics, and it also has important implications in other topics in physics such as as in the Störmer problem, among others.
