Abstract: |
The application of high end computing to astrophysical problems, mainly
in the galactic environment, is developing for many years at
the Dep. of Physics of Sapienza Univ. of Roma. The main scientific
topic is the physics of self gravitating systems, whose specific subtopics
are: i) celestial mechanics and interplanetary probe transfers
in the solar system; ii) dynamics of globular clusters and of globular
cluster systems in their parent galaxies; iii) nuclear clusters formation
and evolution; iv) massive black hole formation and evolution; v)
young star cluster early evolution. In this poster we describe the
software and hardware computational resources available in our group
and how we are developing both software and hardware to reach the
scientific aims above itemized. |
