Principal Investigator: Dr. Ilian Iliev , Astronomy Centre, Physics and Astronomy, University of Sussex (U.K.)

HPC Platform used: SuperMUC of LRZ

Local Project ID: pr86be

Scientists used GCS supercomputing resources to perform a series of state-of-the-art constrained simulations of the first galaxies and their radiative effects in our Local Universe, among the largest and most detailed of their kind, following tens of billions of particles, while also modelling the complex physics involved in this process.
