Poisson integrator for symmetric rigid bodies

We derive an explicit second order reversible Poisson integrator for symmetric rigid bodies in space (i.e. without a fixed point). The integrator is obtained by applying a splitting method to the Hamiltonian after reduction by the S1 body symmetry. In the particular case of a magnetic top in an axis...
