Update - I've temporarily removed the links on this post. The CCNR website appears to convey been hacked together with is right away redirecting to porn sites.
Computer simulations of the universe together with large scale galaxy surveys advise that long filaments connect galaxies inside the Universe. This concept of a 'cosmic web' views the Universe equally a ready of discrete galaxies held together yesteryear gravity. Thanks to Kim Albrecht, at the Center for Complex Network Research, you lot tin right away persuasion iii distinct mapped models of the cosmic web.
Scientists at the Center for Complex Network Research tested 7 distinct network algorithms to larn to a greater extent than virtually the structure together with the characteristics of the underlying network of the cosmic web. Their question has revealed to a greater extent than virtually how galaxies check together inside the Universe.
In The Network Behind the Cosmic Web Kim Albrecht has created iii interactive visualizations of the cosmic spider web based on the iii brain models that were tested yesteryear the Center for Complex Network Research. These iii 3d models of the universe introduce a mapped network of 24,000 galaxies amongst to a greater extent than than 100,000 connections. The iii models are the Fixed Length Model, the Varying Length Model together with the Nearest Neighbors Model.
In Albrecht's Cosmic Web Visualization you lot tin switch betwixt the iii dissimilar models using the links inward the side panel. You tin rotate each 3d model using your mouse together with zoom inward together with out using the mouse scroll wheel. You tin equally good purpose the histogram inward the side panel to conform the release of connections per galaxy inward the model.
