So I've been recently watching some videos and I found some very interesting videos on YouTube.
The N-Body Shop from the University of Washington works similiar like US. Expect it runs on a super computer
and calculates the movement of a couple of millions gravitational interacting particles which also represent different elements.
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=NbodyshopWhat I thought of is thinking about realizing something like a galaxy formation also in US.
However we are bound to the resources of a home computer and therfor we are not able to run a simulation in the same ways like they did in Washington. Therefor the formation of one single, galaxy like object would already be a success.
However we need to define a goal in order to speak of a success.
What makes galaxies so interesting and unique is that they are plane like structures.
Their majority of mass orders around one orbital plane.
The function of this thread is the following:
Working out (the properties) and discussing such a system.
