&lt;br /&gt;
== Why MilkyWay@home? ==&lt;br /&gt;
The N-body project on MilkyWay@home simulates dwarf galaxies colliding with (or being disrupted by) the Milky Way. The result from this project will give insight on how dwarf galaxies interact with the Milky Way given certain parameters and how those results look when compared to the data observed today. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Goal ==&lt;br /&gt;
The goal of the N-body project is to match simulated dwarf galaxies to real dwarf galaxy data, and thereby constrain the properties of the Milky Way galaxy&#039;s gravitational potential (as well as the properties of the dwarf galaxies).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
