- #N Sqrtgun 10.1
- #O Dean Hickerson, drhickerson@ucdavis.edu 2/14/91
- #C Population in generation t is asymptotic to sqrt(5t/8)
- #C A 3 glider salvo pushes a block 10 units southeast and
- #C sends back 2 gliders, which cause another salvo to be
- #C fired and a glider to be sent southwest. The round
- #C trip time, and hence the gap between southwestward
- #C gliders, increases by an average of 80 generations
- #C each time. More specifically, let a[0]=a[2]=199 and
- #C a[1]=-1. Then, for n>=0, a glider is sent southwest
- #C (by reflection from a buckaroo) in generation
- #C 40 n^2 + 1120 n + a[n mod 3] (at which time the
- #C population is 5n + 1115) and escapes about 270
- #C generations later.
