A repository of vanilla long term integrations of the Solar System

Abstract

We share the source code and a 121 GB dataset of 96 long-term N-body simulations of the Solar System. This dataset can be analyzed by itself to study the dynamics of the Solar System. In addition, our simulations can be the starting point for future studies wishing to explore different initial conditions or additional physical effects on the Solar System. Our simulations can also be used as a comparison and benchmark for new numerical algorithms.
