Direct N-body simulations
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Special high-accuracy direct force summation N-body algorithms and their relevance for the simulation of the dynamical evolution of star clusters and other gravitating N-body systems in astrophysics are presented, explained and compared with other methods. Other methods means here approximate physical models based on the Fokker-Planck equation as well as other, approximate algorithms to compute the gravitational potential in N-body systems. Questions regarding the parallel implementation of direct ``brute force N-body codes are discussed. The astrophysical application of the models to the theory of relaxing rotating and non-rotating collisional star clusters is presented, briefly mentioning the questions of the validity of the Fokker-Planck approximation, the existence of gravothermal oscillations and of rotation and primordial binaries.
