Figure 6.
Parameter space of orbital flips resulting from the N-body, DA and CDA integrations. Initial orbital parameters: mper/m = 1, ω = 0, eper = 0.2, aper/a = 10, e = 0.2. The initial values of inclination and Ω are scanned. For the N-body integrations, the true anomaly of both outer orbit and inner orbit are initially set to 0. Integrations in which flips occur (i.e. jz crossed zero) are shown as red points while those without are shown in blue. As can be seen, the DA calculations have significantly different results from N-body while CDA corrects most of the errors in DA.
