The Swiss German television SF DRS reported in the transmission Einstein about the research results of Prof. Lucio Mayer of the University of Zurich about the first realistic simulation of the birth of a galaxy similar to our Milky Way. Have a look at the movie (in German) Einstein vom 22.12.2011
In the two previous posts we presented the simulation of the spatial structure of the light emitted in early galaxies. We asked Rick Wagner of SDSC to discuss with Venkartram Vishwanath of Argonne the challenges of creating visualizations of very large numerical scale. The simulation of Rick produces for example 256 GB of data for […]
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 […]
