Cosmological simulations have become indispensable tools for understanding the assembly of galaxies within the framework of a ΛCDM Universe. By numerically integrating the coupled equations of gravity ...

Parallel N-body simulations form the computational backbone for modelling the dynamical evolution of astrophysical systems, from planetary rings and protoplanetary discs to galaxy clusters and ...

Image: Snapshots of the time evolution of a collision of two spiral galaxies with black holes at their center from a computer simulation. Color indicates temperature and brightness the gas density.

Researchers led by the University of Tsukuba present computer simulations that capture the complex dynamics of elusive neutrinos left over from the Big Bang Current simulations of cosmic structure ...
