Scientific paper

We describe a new method for treating perturbed binaries in the KS formulation. The main idea is based on expanding the solution in Taylor series. When combined with Stumpff functions, this procedure only requires a small number of terms for high accuracy and gives exact solutions in the unperturbed case. The practical usefulness and efficiency of the method has been demonstrated by implementation in a general N-body code based on the Hermite scheme.
