      Convergence and stability theorems are proved for a particle method for symmetric, hyperbolic systems. The algorithm relies on a well-chosen smoothing procedure to capture information travelling at speeds different from the particle velocities. The proof of convergence is based on the stability result and on a lemma from approximation theory.
