Simulating Early Structure and Galaxy Formation - The THESAN Project

Abstract: Cosmological simulations of galaxy formation have evolved significantly over the last decade. In my talk I will describe recent efforts to model the large-scale distribution of galaxies with cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. The focus of the talk will be a discussion of our new simulation campaign, the THESAN project, to study the epoch of re-ionization and the early Universe.
