MPA-Garching: “GADGET is a freely available code for cosmological N-body/SPH simulations on serial workstations, or on massively parallel
computers with distributed memory. The parallel version of GADGET uses an explicit communication model that is implemented with
the standardized MPI communication interface.

GADGET computes gravitational forces with a hierarchical tree algorithm and represents fluids by means of smoothed particle
hydrodynamics.”
