Summary
Celestial Choreography: Unveiling Gravitational Few-Body Dynamics
Using numerical integration, it’s possible to predict the individual motions of a group of a few celestial objects interacting gravitationally. This book serves as an introduction to the few-body problem, where a key figure in developing more efficient methods over the past few decades summarizes and explains them, covering both basic analytical formulations and numerical methods.

About The Author
Seppo Mikkola
Seppo Mikkola is a senior lecturer at the University of Turku, Finland, and staff member at Tuorla Observatory. He has made important contributions to the regularization of equations of N-body motion. Since he invented ‘algorithmic regularization’ of few-body system dynamics, it has become the foundation of many simulations worldwide.
