Abstract

Mercury is a general-purpose N-body integration package for problems in celestial mechanics. It is the N-body integrator based on Bulirsh-Stoer, Everhart and other methods. It can "out of box" integrate every system like Solar System, 3 body problem and so on. The Mercury binary version can also work for either single stars (central -> Chambers, 1999) and binary stars (close/wide -> Chambers et al., 2002). The configuration is really simple. Current package is preconfigured for Linux and Mac OS X users with compile and clean tasks. v6.4bin Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish).
