License not specified, but looks like freeware.
Usage: Physics and possibly chemistry, high school and up.

xyZET is an interactive general-purpose simulation program, enabling users to
visualize complex and difficult physics processes. It supports explorative
experimentation but can as well be used during lectures. One of its main
features is the 3-dimensional visualization and animation of particles
interacting on the basis of different forces (including spring, gravity,
Coulomb, and contact) and fields (including gravity, electric, and magnetic).
Numerous preprogrammed experimental situations are delivered with xyZET, new
experiments can be created interactively. All experiments run in a cube which
can be rotated and viewed from arbitrary angles.

What makes xyZET unique are not only its 3-dimensional capabilities, but also
its options for customizing the user interface for better use in teaching, and
that it can be operated by remote control via the internet.

xyZET is implemented in plain C and is being developed running Linux and
X11/OSF-Motif on PCs, but has also been ported to Windows9x/ME/NT4.0, where an
additional X server software is needed.
