Abstract

Description

We report on a package of routines for the computer algebra system Maple which supports the explicit determination of the geometric quantities, field equations, equations of motion, and conserved quantities of General Relativity in the post-Newtonian approximation. The package structure is modular and allows for an easy modification by the user. The set of routines can be used to verify hand calculations or to generate the input for further numerical investigations.
20 pages, 3 figures. The latest version of the package can be obtained from http://www.thp.uni-koeln.de/~dp/procrustes.html
