Aug 15, 2017 at 22:52 comment added Noldorin @StephenG Sure. I don't frequent Astronomy SE, so I'll take your word for it. I'd classify this as (computational) astrophysics though, and would probably come here as my first stop, but if he doesn't get a satisfactory answer here, he can always cross-post I suppose...

Aug 15, 2017 at 11:15 comment added Kyle Kanos Periodic BC's? I'm also curious about the initial conditions as well, specifically why random velocities and not rotationally distributed.
Aug 15, 2017 at 11:13 comment added Kyle Kanos @StephenG they're also reasonably commonly discussed on Physics SE & should stay here since it's a physics problem.

Aug 15, 2017 at 2:58 comment added StephenG - Help Ukraine @Noldorin It's obviously physics, I'm simply suggesting that simulations of this nature are reasonably commonly discussed on Astronomy SE.

Aug 15, 2017 at 1:39 comment added Noldorin I think it's quite appropriate for Physics SE, to be honest.
Aug 15, 2017 at 1:37 comment added StephenG - Help Ukraine This particular problem may get better answers on the Astronomy SE.
