The computational & theoretical galaxy formation group at LJMU works on many aspects of galaxy formation and evolution, using state-of-the-art N-body and cosmological hydrodynamical simulations carried out on our own HPC cluster as well as on national and international supercomputing facilities, such as DiRAC and PRACE. Three of our members are associates of the Virgo Consortium for Cosmological Supercomputer Simulations.
Our simulations are used extensively by a number of observational collaborations and we work closely with observers to interpret a wide variety of observational data and test the realism of our models.
