I built a gravitational N-body simulator whose rules are derived entirely from established physical laws, with no hand‑tuned parameters. Each physical constant is linked to a documented source via an automated provenance audit. The simulator initializes with NASA JPL DE440 ephemeris data and is validated against real Solar System observations. We derive an explicit predictability horizon that accounts for numerical integration error, chaotic dynamics, and measurement uncertainty, reproducing the known long‑term predictability limit of the Solar System. The work also provides a reproducible computational framework that integrates provenance auditing, numerical validation, and predictability analysis for gravitational simulations.
| selected citations These citations are derived from selected sources. This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | 0 | |
| popularity This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network. | Average | |
| influence This indicator reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | Average | |
| impulse This indicator reflects the initial momentum of an article directly after its publication, based on the underlying citation network. | Average |
