Seminar: Potential Gradient Descent Acceleration of L-PICOLA Simulations with Non-Gaussian Initial Conditions

Ogden Center West OCW 0017 OCW 017 Ogden Centre West, Durham University, Durham

Title: Potential Gradient Descent Acceleration of L-PICOLA Simulations with Non-Gaussian Initial Conditions Speaker: Greco Alejandro Peña Pinto Abstract: Cosmic structure formation helps us understand how the universe evolved, from small primordial perturbations to large superclusters. Fast N-body codes generate dark matter fields quickly but often miss small-scale details. Machine learning can help improve this resolution. […]
