Projektbeskrivelse: Modelling and visualization of star formation in cold molecular clouds, using supercomputer simulations performed at DCSC-KU (www.dcsc.ku.dk). Suitable computer codes and computing time for carrying out the experiments are available. Visualization and animation tools available include IDL, NAG Explorer, Data Explorer, and NCAR Vapor Graphics. The goal is to illustrate how star formation works. For details contact ÅN.
 
Faglige perspektiver: Training in the use of computer simulations in physics and astrophysics. Familiarity with the Danish Center for Scientific Computing (DCSC-KU).
