MISSION
The research computing group enables advanced research by providing leading edge computing
services across the FAS.
Our staff maintains expertise in constantly changing computing technologies,
while "speaking the language" of the FAS researchers, to help them use computing
more effectively. Research Computing technologies sit atop of support and
infrastructure provided by the FAS IT organization.

Moving Mesh Cosmology

We present the first hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation (PDF) using the new moving mesh code AREPO - more...
Cosmology

Very small quantum fluctuations in the first 10-30 of a second in the universe seeded small density inhomogeneities. These inhomogeneities grew with time, eventually becoming the galaxies. more...
