When should we use direct O(N^2) N-body simulation (instead of other methods)?
I've read a small tutorial on N-body simulation methods. What it says about direct N-body simulation is:
These codes are often used in star cluster dynamics or in other contexts where multiple stars ...

Is this paper on globular cluster stability still up to date?
I'm looking to better understand the stability of globular clusters for an n-body dynamical simulation, specifically with respect to initial data conditions.
I know that the total potential energy ...
