Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
A new cluster based event-driven algorithm is developed to simulate the formation of clusters in a two-dimensional gas: particles move freely until they collide and stick together irreversibly. These clusters aggregate into bigger structures in an isotropic (random) way, forming fractal structures whose fractal dimension depends on the initial density of the system. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.
