Many N-body simulation codes, including EXP, work most efficiently when the gravitational constant G is set to 1 in the simulation units. This directory provides tools and examples for converting physical data (e.g., in CGS or astronomical units) to a scaled unit system where G=1, which simplifies equations of motion and improves numerical stability.
