Master Thesis

Dynamics of planetary systems in binaries: Gamma Cephei see
Supervisor: dr hab. Krzysztof Goździewski
Work included an interface for Taylor package (A. Jorba, M. Zou) written in C with ODEs generator Tina written in Python. The code allows user to integrate full three-dimensional dynamical model of N-body planetary systems.

Keywords: Gamma Cephei, MEGNO, Taylor Series Method, Poincare relative variables

Science interesting fields
