Khi nào dùng Roche Lobe Binary 3D Explorer
Use this explorer when you want the geometry of binary mass transfer, and skip it when you want two stars simply orbiting or the Lagrange points of a planet-moon pair.
- Explaining Roche lobes, L1, and Roche-lobe overflow
- Connecting detached, semi-detached, and contact binaries
- Introducing novae, cataclysmic variables, and the Algol paradox
This is an educational visualization - real lobes, schematic stream, not to scale.
Walk the controls in the step-by-step guide, or compare options in vs alternatives. Open the Roche Lobe Binary 3D Explorer.
