Simulated cosmic volume shown in three contrasting views
Original: Three contrasted views of the same simulated cosmic volume, showing: 1= the baryonic matter density at z=0 (=now) 2= the
Astrophysicist Franco Vazza has shared new visualisations of a simulated piece of the universe, showing the same cosmic volume three ways: the density of ordinary baryonic matter today, the distribution of dark matter, and the projected mean temperature of baryons along the line of sight. The side-by-side images highlight how visible matter, dark matter and gas temperature trace different structures across the cosmic web, drawing attention from the astronomy community.
Why now: The striking side-by-side comparison of ordinary matter, dark matter and gas temperature in one simulated volume is being shared by science audiences.
