Two body problem:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Two particles of mass 1g separated by 1cm, orbiting in a circle around their centre of mass.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Snapshots taken every 0.1 unit times, time unit chosen so that G = 1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Will do this again with more sensible units)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Apply a drift in the plane of the orbit. Plots show absolute fractional change in energy for drift speed = 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 unit velocities (circular velocity is 1/root(2)).

Box of size 12cm. Things go crazy when the particles drift off the edge of the box.![energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_0](/uploads/5707ac2534646767c3d35dcfb586bf49/energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_0.png)![energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_1](/uploads/fa522d5256cc000ae8847afac9075e8c/energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_1.png)![energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_2](/uploads/ce4a4ced1d4a1c7a7bb1ebd9703c9916/energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_2.png)![energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_3](/uploads/ea22369a82bdea43e0ed9d6b223e64c8/energy_change_l_1_drift_speed_3.png) |
