nMod - Particle-particle nbody model

'nMod' is an nBody model meant for use as a scientific tool and an educational resource for those wishing to implement their own nBody model, either with or without using nMod as a base.

The default build acts as a base for nBody experiments. It is accurate enough to provide a realistic representation of motion within the solar system, or for any set of particles whose gravitational interaction you wish to observe. Information for an nMod run is provided through plain text files, whose use is clearly explained in the accompanying manual. 'nMod' was originally used to model the passage of Earth crossing asteroids and the paths of a theoretical intercepting spacecraft.
