The virtual collider programs we run
The virtual collider programs we run Following a post on our forums, we here give a brief introduction to each of the physics simulation packages we run. They are essentially competing models for describing the same physics, placing emphasis on different aspects. Accordingly, each is based on slightly different approximations, and originate in slightly different
