Astrophysical N-body Simulation Tools
Sourceforge project
A number of tools for running and analyzing N-body simulations have been
produced. For example see the software distributed by the
N-body shop.
Here we will manage the continued distribution, maintenance and improvement of
these tools using the Open Source paradigm.
See the Sourceforge project
page.
Other Astrophysical N-body projects
Integration with work by others is very desirable. Here are some projects we
know about. To let us know about others by
submitting a new item
to the SourceForge Bugs Tracker.
- The Nbody Shop
- The first software released here has come from this group.
The TIPSY nbody visualization program is available from this
group.
