Launch Experiment
Not working? This is a WebGL experiment, so try running it with Google Chrome.
From the Author:
This experiment is a N-body problem simulation. Using a simplified version of Barnes-Hut algorithm, we can compute the trajectories of thousands of massive bodies spinning around a larger one.
The asteroids merge when they collide.
With Google Chrome on Windows and a recent proccessing unit, you can reach 10 000 bodies.
Technology:
languages : WEBGL/javascript/php technologies : Barnes-Hut algorithm Used good advices of Gregg Tavares = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfQ8rKGTVlg
