This project will develop a better understanding of the formation of galaxies at high redshift by using numerical N-Body simulations with high resolution and physical detail in a full Cold Dark Matter cosmological context. The simulations will follow the evolution of early galaxies up to the present time to connect their properties with those of present-day galaxies. The project will relate directly the spatial distribution and physical properties of the particles in the N-Body simulations with the quantities actually measured for real high redshift galaxies.Broader impacts include a program to help underrepresented minorities in their transition to college and possibly an astronomy major, and research opportunities for undergraduates.

该项目将通过在完整的冷暗物质宇宙学背景下使用具有高分辨率和物理细节的数值N体模拟来更好地理解高红移星系的形成。 模拟将跟踪早期星系到现在的演化，将它们的性质与现在的星系联系起来。 该项目将把N体模拟中粒子的空间分布和物理性质与真实的高红移星系的实际测量量直接联系起来。更广泛的影响包括一个项目，帮助代表性不足的少数民族过渡到大学，可能是天文学专业，并为本科生提供研究机会。
