Cosmological N-body Simulations as Probes of Gravity: Christine Corbett Moran, thesis defense
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
NOTE Edited version with fixed audio track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6gaFeLyUIA Christine Corbett Moran: "I focus on predictions that can be made using cosmological N-body simulations. Firstly, I give an introduction to cosmology and N-body simulations. Finally, I outline my predictions as to globular cluster formation and satellite properties in the galaxy cluster environment."

fantastic presentation! One of the best Powerpoints I have ever seen!
I really liked you philosophical tangents. Especially the thought that the many worlds interpretation of quantum physics is the key to understanding how it can be that the fundamental physical constants (among others the seemingly unlikely value of the cosmological constant) seem to be fine-tuned as to make the emergence of our present universe with life in it almost inevitable -
corrections: no idea why but ~300,000 came out as 300 years after the big bag for the "baby photo", the CMB. CMB is ~300,000 years after the big bang. I'll watch the rest today and comment with other verbal typos. nerves!
