Schwarzschild
The GR Schwarzschild Particle program simulates orbits of objects around a black hole using the Schwarzschild metric. It also displays a plot of the effective potential well in which the orbiting particle resides. GR Schwarzschild Particle is part of a suite of Open Source Physics programs that...
