Primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG) is one of the most powerful probes of the early Universe and measurements of the large scale structure of the Universe have the potential to transform our understanding of this area. However relating…

This is the second in a series of three papers in which we present an end-to-end simulation from the MICE collaboration, the MICE Grand Challenge (MICE-GC) run. The N-body contains about 70 billion dark-matter particles in a $(3 \, h^{-1}…

A major goal of computational astrophysics is to simulate the Milky Way Galaxy with sufficient resolution down to individual stars. However, the scaling fails due to some small-scale, short-timescale phenomena, such as supernova explosions.…

We introduce Copernicus Complexio (COCO), a high-resolution cosmological N-body simulation of structure formation in the $\Lambda{\rm CDM}{}$ model. COCO follows an approximately spherical region of radius $\sim 17.4h^{-1}\,{\rm Mpc}$…
