Papers

1. The Structure of Cold Dark Matter HalosThe Astrophysical Journal · 1996 · 8,212 citations

   We use N-body simulations to investigate the structure of dark halos in the standard cold dark matter cosmogony. Halos are excised from simulations of cosmologically representative regions and are resimulated individually at high resolution. We study objects with masses ranging…

2. The EAGLE project: simulating the evolution and assembly of galaxies and their environmentsMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society · 2014 · 3,620 citations

   We introduce the Virgo Consortium's Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments (EAGLE) project, a suite of hydrodynamical simulations that follow the formation of galaxies and supermassive black holes in cosmologically representative volumes of a standard Λ cold dark…

3. The evolution of large-scale structure in a universe dominated by cold dark matterThe Astrophysical Journal · 1985 · 3,402 citations

   The results of numerical simulations of nonlinear gravitational clustering in universes dominated by weakly interacting, 'cold' dark matter are presented. The numerical methods used and the way in which initial conditions were generated are described, and the simulations performed are…
