Many-Body Tree Methods in Physics

by Susanne Pfalzner and Paul Gibbon

Book Overview

Studying the dynamics of a large number of particles interacting through long-range forces, commonly referred to as the N-body problem, is a central aspect of many different branches of physics. In recent years, physicists have made significant advances in the development of fast N-body algorithms to deal efficiently with such complex problems. This book gives a thorough introduction to these so-called tree methods, setting out the basic principles...
