Calculation is in the frame where the CM of the white galaxy is at rest •Ignored the pairwise interactions between the orbiting bodies •The initial "flailing out" of the blue galactic arms is because i accidentally (?) gave the particles too much initial angular momentum

Out of curiosity, have you tried using NBodySimulation? I haven't had the time to go much further than the doc examples: https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/NBodySimulation.html …

I have, and it seems to have a lot of issues which is a shame .. *especially* with collisions
