Visualization of a particle model easiest way?

Click For Summary
A Monte Carlo model of cobalt nanoparticles is being used to visualize particle locations and magnetic moment vectors, but current tools like gnuplot are inadequate for drawing circles of specific sizes. The user seeks a quicker solution to visualize this data, specifically requiring the ability to draw circles with defined radii and arrows at specific angles from text file data. GDIS software is suggested as a potential visualization tool to meet these needs. The goal is to streamline the visualization process to allow more focus on model development. Efficient visualization methods are essential for effective data representation in scientific modeling.

Hello,
I have a working monte carlo model of a system of cobalt nanoparticles. I am looking for a way to visualize their locations, as output from the model in the form of files with (x,y) or (x,y,z) coordinates. I also need to shown on the same image the vectors showing their magnetic moments (output from simulation as angles form 0 to 2pi). I have been using gnuplot up to this point, but now i need to show two different radii of particles and I can not have gnuplot draw circles of specific sizes. All I can do is play with the point size, but this is in any way connected to the mathematical real scale of the graph gnuplot outputs. I would like to get this visualization as quickly as possible so I can actually spend time working on the model instead of drawing circles.
Essentially, I just need to draw circles with specific radii and arrows at certain angles using data loaded from a text file.
What is the quickest way to do this?

I can recommend the use of the GDIS software for visualization.
