- SoftParticles Sample
- Particle systems are a common method for creating volumetric effects in games. They can be used to simulate various effects such as fire, cloudes, smoke, dust, glowing projectiles, magic spells, etc. A common technique is to use 2D camera-aligned quads centered at each particle to represent the volume that the...

- ParticleDraw is a novel windows drawing program powered by a state of the art general system simulation engine. The brushes are dynamic systems of particles with interesting behaviours, which you can completely customise. Each brush is intricately tuneable with many underlying physical parameters and one can construct arbitrary systems of...

- Particle Tracking and Simulation on the .Net Framework
- Particle tracking and simulation studies are becoming increasingly complex. In addition to the use of more sophisticated graphics, interactive scripting is becoming popular. Compatibility with different control systems requires network and database capabilities. It is not a trivial task to fulfill all the various requirements without sacrificing runtime performance. This...

- Geek Trivia: More super than super
- Gamma rays quibbleIn your assertion that 'Gamma rays are the highest energy form of radiation--effectively, the "brightest" kind of light in the sky', I would argue that the 'brightness' of the radiation has more to do with the amount of the photons of the radiation. It would be more accurate...
