The Smaller Alignment Index (SALI) is a very useful and efficient indicator that can distinguish rapidly and with certainty between ordered and chaotic motion in Hamiltonian systems. This is based on the different behavior of the SALI in…
We apply the smaller alignment index (SALI) method for distinguishing between ordered and chaotic motion in some simple conservative dynamical systems. In particular we compute the SALI for ordered and chaotic orbits in a 2D and a 4D…
We apply the Smaller ALignment Index (SALI) method to a 4--dimensional mapping of accelerator dynamics in order to distinguish rapidly, reliably and accurately between ordered and chaotic motion. The main advantage of this index is that it…
The ability of the Smaller Alignment Index (SALI) to distinguish chaotic from ordered motion, has been demonstrated recently in several publications.\cite{Sk01,GRACM} Basically it is observed that in chaotic regions the SALI goes to zero…
We provide a concise presentation of the Smaller (SALI) and the Generalized Alignment Index (GALI) methods of chaos detection. These are efficient chaos indicators based on the evolution of two or more, initially distinct, deviation vectors…
We introduce a new methodology for a fast and reliable discrimination between ordered and chaotic orbits in multidimensional Hamiltonian systems which we call the Linear Dependence Index (LDI). The new method is based on the recently…
We use the Smaller ALignment Index (SALI) method of chaos detection, to study the global dynamics of conservative dynamical systems described by differential or difference equations. In particular, we consider the well--known 2 and…
A very important issue in the area of galactic dynamics is the detection of chaotic and ordered motion inside galaxies. In order to achieve this target, we use the Smaller ALignment Index (SALI) method, which is a very suitable tool for…
We present results demonstrating the occurrence of changes in the collective dynamics of a Hamiltonian system which describes a confined microplasma characterized by long--range Coulomb interactions. In its lower energy regime, we first…
We use a simple dynamical model in order to investigate the regular or chaotic character of orbits in a barred galaxy with a central, spherically symmetric, dense nucleus and a flat disk. In particular, we explore how the total orbital…
As originally formulated, the Generalized Alignment Index (GALI) method of chaos detection has so far been applied to distinguish quasiperiodic from chaotic motion in conservative nonlinear dynamical systems. In this paper we extend its…
We investigate the detailed dynamics of multidimensional Hamiltonian systems by studying the evolution of volume elements formed by unit deviation vectors about their orbits. The behavior of these volumes is strongly influenced by the…
The H\'{e}non-Heiles potential is undoubtedly one of the most simple, classical and characteristic Hamiltonian systems. The aim of this work is to reveal the influence of the value of the total orbital energy, which is the only parameter of…
We present and validate simple and efficient methods to estimate the chaoticity of orbits in low dimensional dynamical systems from computations of Lagrangian descriptors (LDs) on short time scales. Two quantities are proposed for…
The chaotic or ordered character of orbits in galactic models is an important issue, since it can influence dynamical evolution. This distinction can be achieved with the help of the Smaller Alingment Index - (SALI). We describe here…
The recently introduced GALI method is used for rapidly detecting chaos, determining the dimensionality of regular motion and predicting slow diffusion in multi--dimensional Hamiltonian systems. We propose an efficient computation of the…
We present a comparison of different numerical techniques for the integration of variational equations. The methods presented can be applied to any autonomous Hamiltonian system whose kinetic energy is quadratic in the generalized momenta,…
The behavior of the Generalized Alignment Index (GALI) method has been extensively studied and successfully applied for the detection of chaotic motion in conservative Hamiltonian systems, yet its application to non-Hamiltonian dissipative…
We present a method for the computation of the Generalized Alignment Index (GALI), a fast and effective chaos indicator, using a multi-particle approach that avoids variational equations. We show that this approach is robust and accurate by…
The distinction between chaotic and regular behavior of orbits in galactic models is an important issue and can help our understanding of galactic dynamical evolution. In this paper, we deal with this issue by applying the techniques of the…
