Golden Webinars – Volker Springel - “Hydrodynamical Simulations of Galaxy Formation“
The ’Golden Webinars in Astrophysics’ series seeks to bring forefront research in astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology to the public. Our second speaker during the Golden Week of Webinars (8-12 June 2020) was Volker Springel, who is Director at the Max-Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Garching, Germany.
Dr. Springel works on cosmological simulations using supercomputers. He has developed various numerical codes which he used to create massive high-resolution simulation of the evolution of structures in the Universe. He has made fundamental contributions to our understanding of the importance of feedback from star-formation and active galactic nuclei for the formation of galaxies. In 2020 he received the Gruber Cosmology Prize for his defining contributions to cosmological simulations.
The panel of the June 9th, 2020 ’Golden Webinar’ consisted of:
• Volker Springel – speaker
• Patricio Gonzales – interpreter, @
• Thomas H. Puzia
