This is my variant of John Chamber's MERCURY code, which is
an N-body integrator that is used to study the orbital evolution of
planetary systems. The code provided here is a slightly tweaked
version of John's code, and includes additional forces that can drive
planet migration or orbit decay due to a drag force.
Also included are several IDL routines that I use to read an
analyze the output; see the
README for details.
A tarfile
containing everything, as well as the
individual files, are
available. John's original MERCURY code can also be found at his
website.
