Explore the fundamentals of cosmological simulations in this lecture by R. Angulo, part of the "Cosmology - The Next Decade" program at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the world of computational cosmology, learning how scientists model and simulate the evolution of the universe. Gain insights into the techniques used to study dark matter, dark energy, and large-scale structure formation. Understand the role of simulations in addressing key cosmological puzzles and their importance in interpreting data from upcoming observational experiments. This lecture serves as an introduction to the critical field of numerical simulations in modern cosmology, setting the stage for advanced discussions on topics such as the Lambda cold dark matter paradigm, galaxy formation, and the cosmic web.
