Initial Conditions for Large Cosmological Simulations
This technical paper describes a software package that was designed to produce initial conditions for large cosmological simulations in the context of the Horizon collaboration. These tools generalize E. Bertschinger’s Grafic1 software to distributed parallel architectures and offer a flexible alternative to the Grafic2 software for “zoom” initial conditions, at the price of large cumulated cpu...
متن کاملMulti-scale initial conditions for cosmological simulations
We discuss a new algorithm to generate multi-scale initial conditions with multiple levels of refinements for cosmological “zoom-in” simulations. The method uses an adaptive convolution of Gaussian white noise with a real space transfer function kernel together with an adaptive multi-grid Poisson solver to generate displacements and velocities following first (1LPT) or second order Lagrangian p...

متن کاملInitial Conditions to Cosmological N -body Simulations, or How to Run an Ensemble of Simulations
The conventional method of generating initial conditions for cosmological N -body simulations introduces a significant error in the real-space statistical properties of the particles. More specifically, the finite box size leads to a significant underestimate of σ8, the correlation function, and nonlinear effects. I implement a method of generating initial conditions for N -body simulations tha...
متن کاملAn alternative to grids and glasses: Quaquaversal pre-initial conditions for N-body simulations
N-body simulations sample their initial conditions on an initial particle distribution, which for cosmological simulations is usually a glass or grid, whilst a Poisson distribution is used for galaxy models, spherical collapse etc. These pre-initial conditions have inherent correlations, noise due to discreteness and preferential alignments, whilst the glass distribution is poorly defined and c...
