What is your favorite kind of simulation? What would you like to see in a video? Vote and let me know in the comments. Multiple options are allowed.

Pretty much everything. If you want it more narrowed down, I would say surface sim and galaxy formation. Planet collision is a Nice to have.

When simulations about planet formation are done, there is a common mistake in my opinion: they start the simulation with something like 100k planetesimal around the star and each planetesimal will merge with another. This, as a final result, will end in hundreds of planetesimal around the solar system and giant impacts as outcome. This is in contrast with observations and other simulations (PhantomSPH): 8-10 planets around a star that grow fast and in order from the accretion disk dust To replicate these kind of simulations, Phantom SPH use sink particles, but it would be cool to do that from scratch: using billions of particles that join like softsphere to give, as a result, an ordered accretion like is seen with observations, so without the presence of hundreds of planetesimals. https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.science.org%2Fcontent%2Farticle%2Fplanets-probably-lurk-gaps-these-stellar-disks-how-did-they-form-so-fast&psig=AOvVaw1Qj-yi97IikfpXNJHVJYhK&ust=1699445689519000&source=images&cd=vfe&opi=89978449&ved=0CBEQjRxqFwoTCNDquuHusYIDFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD
