Supervisor: Dr. Rachel Bean

And for the sake of having some pictures:

A small subsection of the simulation results for the formation of large scale structure presented as the result of a simulation from z=50 to z=0 (today). Each side of the box shown is 20 Mpc /h in size and the box represents 8/1000 of the simulation volume, and includes 8,490 of the 1283 (=2,097,152) total particles.  The simulation is carried out for standard gravity, and is obtained via use of A. Klypin's Particle Mesh code.

Two screenshots from a program I wrote using OpenGL and C++ to create accurate renderings of Mars' Moons. (Phobos is depicted).
