Interview with Joe Insley of Argonne on Visualizing the Spatial Structure of the Light Emitted in Early Galaxies

Posted on December 22, 2011 by mdl in hpc-ch Booth, Science, Video Blog

Joe Insley (Argonne National Lab) has been working together with Rick Wagner of SDSC (see previous interview) on the visualization of the spatial structure of the light emitted in early galaxies. The visualization compares variables from two different simulations. To compare of the two different simulations visually, Joe used vl3, a hardware-accelerated volume rendering library […]

Interview with Rick Wagner SDSC – Simulation of the Formation of the First Galaxies

Posted on December 21, 2011 by mdl in Science

At the San Diego Supercomputing Centre (SDSC) booth at SC11 we met Rick Wagner who presented simulations of astrophysics that were done on Jaguar and Kraken at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In the simulation one could see the light of early galaxies that are forming (red shift of 8). The researchers simulated the birth of […]
