CIAFF-UAM (Centro de Investigación Avanzada en Física Fundamental) is an institution within the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid that fosters cutting-edge research and synergies in many areas of Physical Science
The300 project is a simulation of 324 large galaxy clusters modelled with different full-physics hydrodynamical re-simulations and semi-analytical models (SAMs). Its purpose is to provide a large catalogue of theoretically modelled galaxy clusters for cosmological and astrophysical applications.
In our best understanding, the Universe is dominated by two elusive components: dark matter and dark energy. There is a strong effort to constrain these dark components using galaxies as their tracers.
Dr. Violeta Gonzalez-Perez is organising a symposium to explore this project during the European Astronomical Society Annual Meeting:
