n body simulations - What is a possible software for simulating binary star systems?

mikeonly,



I stumbled across PHOEBE code the other day in another response in this forum. I started looking into it.



"PHOEBE stands for PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs. It is a tool for modeling eclipsing binary stars based on photometric, spectroscopic, interferometric and/or polarimetric data." -- abstracted from About Phoebe webpage.



Perhaps this can fulfill your needs. I've not yet installed and looked at it.
It is developed by a group of professional astronomers from around the world.
