N-body simulation outcomes of binary-single scatterings consisting of three white dwarfs, shown with respect to inner and outer mass ratios ($m_3$ is the incident star). Considers post-Newtonian contributions to 2.5th order and tidal interactions. Key: IMWD - Intermediate Mass White Dwarf ($0.5-0.85M_{\odot}$), MWD - Massive White Dwarf ($\ge0.85M_{\odot}$), LMWD - Low Mass White Dwarf ($<0.5M_{\odot}$), FRB - Possible Fast Radio Burst progenitor event (See: 10.48550/arXiv.2511.18678). $v_{\inf}=10\mathrm{km/s}$, $a_{in,0}=10^{-2}AU$ (2025).
