Numerical simulations unravel the cosmic web.
The universe is permeated by a network of filaments, sheets, and knots collectively forming a "cosmic web." The discovery of the cosmic web, especially through its signature of absorption of light from distant sources by neutral hydrogen in the intervening intergalactic medium, exemplifies the interplay between theory and experiment that drives science and is one of the great examples in which ...
متن کاملNumerical simulations of the cosmic star formation history
The cosmic star formation history in Cold Dark Matter dominated cosmological scenarios is studied by means of hydrodynamical numerical simulations. In particular, we explore a low density model with a Λ-term and two high density models with different power spectra, all of them being spatially flat. Our simulations employ a fully nonlinear N-body and Eulerian hydrodynamics algorithm with a model...
متن کاملNUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF THE PHASE TRANSITIONS IN CLUSTERS
We have studied the phase transitions in atomic clusters by molecular dynamics simulation, assuming Lennard-Jones interatomic pair potential. Calculations are performed by DAP parallel computer. The results are analyzed by simulating their orientational distribution plots (dot-plot), and neutron diffraction patterns. It is shown that all the main features of the bulk phase transitions are e...
متن کاملThe redshift and scale dependence of the cosmic shear signal from numerical simulations
The weak lensing shear signal has been measured numerically in N -body simulations at 14 different redshifts (zs = 0.1 to 3.6) and on angular scales of θ = 2 ′ to 32. In addition, the data have been validated by analytical computations for an identical cosmology, with density parameter Ωm = 0.3 and vacuum energy density parameter λ0 = 0.7. This paper reports on the scale and redshift dependence...
متن کاملWebFEM: A Web Application for Distributed Numerical Simulations
In this work we present the research project aimed to designing and implementing WebFEM, a Web application for the efficient simulation of engineering problems whose solution is based on the Finite Element Method (FEM). WebFEM is accessible through the Web, and the final user interfaces are the most common Web browser pages. The architecture of the simulator has been accurately designed in orde...
