  1. @Trieste Carlton Baugh Coordinator Durham University EC Framework Programme 7 PITN-GA-2009-238356

  2. What is ? • A European Commission funded Initial Training Network • on Computational Cosmology • Started 1st December 2009 • 48 months • 4.65 million Euros • 570 months of Early Stage Researchers (<4 years research • experience, no PhD) • 120 months of Experience Researchers (<5 years research • experience) • Supports meetings and workshops • Industrial partners

  3. CosmoComp Nodes and coordinatiors • Durham, UK Carlos Frenk • MPA, Germany Simon White • Leiden, Netherlands JoopSchaye • Barcelona, Spain Enrique Gaztanaga • Saclay, France RomainTeyssier • Sussex, UK Peter Thomas • Nottingham, UK Frazer Pearce • Trieste, Italy Stefano Borgani • Shanghai, China Yipeng Jing • CONICET, Argentina Patricia Tissera (Mario Abadi) EUROPE

  4. CosmoComp Work Packages • WP1 Simulations of small scales High resolution simulations of DM haloes Simulating the Milky Way • WP2 Simulations of intermediate scales Intergalactic medium, intracluster medium, formation and evolution of galaxies • WP3 Simulations of large scales large-scale structure, production of mock catalogues • WP4 Code development extending/improving baryonic physics, code comparisons

  5. Recruitment CosmoComp started 1/12/2009 – 48 months 570 months Early Stage Researcher funding • 27 months left to allocate • 12 months of these in Shanghai • Combination of 36 month (max) and shorter fellowships • 21 ESR fellows 120 months Experienced Researcher funding • All 120months allocated (two new appointments Nottingham & Sussex, starting soon) • 8 ER fellows

  7. Training – network events

  8. Training: industrial partners • Oracle (formerly SUN) • Microsoft Research • 5 cosmocomp fellows attended annual Microsoft PhD school in 2011 • Mixture of complementary skills training and computing

  9. Publications – new ones needed!

  10. The future • Successfully passed mid-term review in 2011 • CosmoComp ends 30th November 2013 • More workshops + conference/meeting • What next? • New ITN call out: deadline 22nd November 2012 • Proposal: ITN based around simulations for Euclid led, by RomainTeyssier, expanded version of Euclid Cosmological Simulations Working Group.
