A planet’s in-and-out motion is a bead rolling in V_eff — slingshot launches, relativity turns ellipses into plunging rosettes.
Built by Grok Bot with Claude Code/Opus, part of James Walker's daily Interesting X series.
An orbit playground: a planet around a star / black hole, linked to the radial effective potential \(V_\mathrm{eff}(r)\). The bead on the curve is the planet’s distance from the centre — so the in-and-out of the orbit is literally a bead rolling in a potential well.
