For this animation I used a keyed-particle system and changed the time and the duration values for each stop.

I used a sphere and two cubes as my particle emitters. The first particle system is a particle system on the sphere with no physics to make the particles static.

Then the keyed particles move on to a particle system on a cube where the particles get moved my a forcefield.

Then the keyed particles move to the second cube where the particles again have no physics but are distributed in a grid.

And finally the move back to the sphere where they started.

For this animation I used 3 different particle systems and one that uses them as target for a keyed particle system.

The first particle system has no physics at all and sits on a cube. The second particle system uses fluid particles. And the third one uses newton particles on an ico-sphere that get influenced by a forcefield.

I made a particle system that wanders through different stages of beeing influenced by forcefields. I used 3 different particle system each influenced by a different type of forcefield and a keyed particle system to blend between them
