Martin's Pretty Polyhedra
What happens if numbers of similarly electrically charged, weightless particles are placed inside a glass sphere and come to equilibrium? This page shows the polyhedra resulting from a simulation of the system. Little more than the inverse square law is required. Some are familiar (tetrahedron, octahedron), many are not but still interesting.
