A package for running and managing flybys using REBOUND

Project description

AIRBALL Logo, a 3-body problem made to look like the letter A.

Welcome to AIRBALL

AIRBALL is a package for running and managing flybys using REBOUND. It is an extension to REBOUND, the popular N-body integrator.

AIRBALL is currently in alpha testing. The APIs are subject to change without warning or backwards compatibility. Feedback and feature requests are very welcome.

Features

  • Logic for handling the geometry of adding, running, and removing a flyby object in a REBOUND simulation.
  • Stellar environments for generating and managing randomly generated stars from different stellar environments throughout the galaxy.
  • Initial mass functions for quickly generating samples from probability distributions.
  • Astropy.units integration to help you manage the mess of units and scales.
  • Interactive examples for teaching and exploring AIRBALL’s functionality.

Installation

AIRBALL is installable via pip with one simple command

pip install airball

The following packages should automatically be installed along with AIRBALL:

  • rebound
  • numpy
  • scipy
  • joblib
  • astropy
