| Description | Improved simulations of the formation of the first galaxies. We have developed and tested new methodologies for improving the accuracy of these simulations, as well as exploring the effect of incorporating radiation into these simulations. |
| Exploitation Route | Our methodology could be used by other researchers to study the effect of relative velocities between gas and dark matter in the early universe. |
