Abstract:
Polyhedral gravity models are essential for modeling the gravitational field of irregular bodies, such as asteroids and comets. We present an open-source C++ library for the efficient, parallelized computation of a polyhedral gravity model following the line integral approach by Tsoulis. A slim, easy-to-use Python interface using pybind11 accompanies the library. The library is particularly focused on delivering high performance and scalability, which we achieve through vectorization and parall...     »
