| Abstract: | A new algorithm is developed for long-term integrations of the N-body problem. The method uses symplectic integrations of the Hamiltonian equations of motion for each body. This allows one
to employ individual adaptive time-steps in computations. The efficiency of this technique is demonstrated by several tests
performed for typical problems of Solar System dynamics. |
