A Time-Symmetric Block Time-Step Algorithm for N-Body Simulations
Junichiro Makino, Piet Hut, Murat Kaplan +1
The method of choice for integrating the equations of motion of the general N-body problem has been to use an individual time step scheme. For the sake of efficiency, block time st…

A New Time-Symmetric Block Time-Step Algorithm for N-Body Simulations
Murat Kaplan, Hasan Saygin, Piet Hut +1
Time-symmetric integration schemes share with symplectic schemes the property that their energy errors show a much better behavior than is the case for generic integration schemes.…
