SUMMARY:Speaker: Rupert Croft (CMU) - Title: Cosmological simulations\, AI and the high redshift Universe
DESCRIPTION:Research Progress Meeting \nDate: April 30\, 2026 \nTime: 4:00- 5:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room- 50A-5132 [In-Person and HYBRID]  \nSpeaker: Rupert Croft (CMU) \nTitle: Cosmological simulations\, AI and the high redshift Universe \nAbstract: AI assistance can turn complex astrophysical supercomputer simulations into easily accessible tools. I will introduce applications to cosmology\, including hybrid AI-physics codes\, and a agentic system that can set up and run a billion particle simulation in seconds. As a use case for this type of modelling\, I will explore the Lyman-alpha forest of intergalactic absorption in quasars and how it can both be gravitationally lensed\, and also used to make large-scale maps of the intergalactic radiation intensity. I will also present cold dark matter simulation predictions for the mysterious “little red dots” seen by the Webb telescope at high redshift. \nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/98854322464?pwd=K2tKUm1VZjRlV1J5RHE3cXdHQzRxdz09 \nMeeting ID: 988 5432 2464\n\nPasscode: 142239
