A new hybrid technique for modeling dense star clusters

The “gravitational million-body problem,” to model the dynamical evolution of a self-gravitating, collisional N-body system with ∼106 particles over many relaxation times, remains a major challenge in computational astrophysics. Unfortunately, current techniques to model such systems suffer from sev...
