Simulations of high-redshift structure formation and feedback

该项目将侧重于对高红移星系的物理和观测特征以及再电离时代进行详细的数值模拟。有重要的参数空间需要探索，有复杂的物理需要理解和建模，以便可靠地解释观测数据及其与第一批星系的性质以及再电离过程的进展和持续时间的联系。作为这个项目的一部分，学生将学习并进一步开发各种数值代码和工具，包括大规模并行编程和数据分析。他还将学习所涉及的丰富的物理学知识，以及无线电干涉测量和其他相关观测方法的基础知识。

This project will be focusing on detailed numerical modelling of the physics and observational features of high-redshift galaxies and the Epoch of Reionization. There is significant parameter space to be explored and a complex physics to be understood and modelled for reliable interpretation of the observational data and its connection to the properties of the first galaxies and the progress and duration of the reionization process. As part of this project the student will learn and then further develop a variety of numerical codes and tools, including massively-parallel programming and data analysis. He will also learn the rich physics involved, as well as the basics of radio interferometry and other relevant observational methods
