Tautochrone and Brachistochrone Shape Solutions for Rocking Rigid Bodies
Patrick Glaschke
Rocking rigid bodies appear in several shapes in everyday life: As furniture like rocking chairs and rocking cradles or as toys like rocking horses or tilting dolls. The familiar r…
Hybrid methods in planetesimal dynamics: Formation of protoplanetary systems and the mill condition
Pau Amaro-Seoane, Patrick Glaschke, Rainer Spurzem
The formation and evolution of protoplanetary discs remains a challenge from both a theoretical and numerical standpoint. In this work we first perform a series of tests of our new…
Hybrid methods in planetesimal dynamics (I) : Description of a new composite algorithm
Patrick Glaschke, Pau Amaro-Seoane, Rainer Spurzem
The formation and evolution of protoplanetary systems, the breeding grounds of planet formation, is a complex dynamical problem that involves many orders of magnitudes. To serve th…
Trajectories of Rubber Balloons used in Balloon Releases: Theory and Application
Patrick Glaschke
Balloon releases are one of the main attractions of many fairs. Helium filled rubber balloons are released to carry postcards over preferably long distances. Although such balloons…
Fast Determination of Constellation Membership
Patrick Glaschke
The 88 constellations as defined by the IAU segment the sky into regions, separated by an intricate set of boundaries. A binary tree decomposition of this landscape is given which…
N-body Models of Rotating Globular Clusters
Andreas Ernst, Patrick Glaschke, Jose Fiestas +2
We have studied the dynamical evolution of rotating globular clusters with direct -body models. Our initial models are rotating King models; we obtained results for both equal-m…
