N-body simulation with Jacobi coordinates
Показать описание
The gravitational N-body system simulated using Jacobi coordinates in the Hamiltonian formalism.
Dynamics are presented for various planar configurations. The Jacobi coordinates are depicted as green spheres connected with purple rods, which should be interpreted as the vectors of canonical coordinates governed by Hamilton's equations.
0:00 intro
0:14 introducing jacobi coordinates. Unstable system
0:29 figure eight (three planetary bodies)
0:36 figure eight orbiting two bodies. Stable system*
1:00 Broucke-Henon orbiting a celestial body. Stable system*
*conjectured based on long-term simulation
The Hamiltonian system is expressed explicitly without approximations. The system barycenter is fixed at the origin with zero momentum of the entire system.
This specific implementation uses the Hamiltonian originally presented by Wisdom & Holman (1991) DOI:10.1086/115978 but without modifying the system and without application of specialized integration algorithms. The dynamical behavior of the system is identical to that of Cartesian coordinates, and has a similar Hamiltonian form with the kinetic energy being a sum of squared conjugate momenta. The separable Hamiltonian system was simulated using a high order explicit symplectic integrator.
Different orders of masses yield different sets of Jacobi coordinates. The mass order in this video was selected only based on aesthetic visual presentation, and may contradicts the preferred order found in most literature.
The simulation was performed and rendered in real time.
