We find that the material captured by each black hole fluctuates and has little orbital-phase dependence in a circular binary, whereas it clearly modulates with binary orbit in an eccentric binary due to its time-dependent binary potential. This could provide the circumstantial evidence whether there are supermassive binary black holes in core of merged galaxies.
