Matthias Steinmetz

Field: Astronomy
Packard Fellowship award year: 1998

Research Interests

atthias Steinmetz is researching high-resolution numerical simulations, to study formation and evolution of galaxies. Steinmetz uses a special computer developed by researchers at the University of Tokyo to perform numerical simulations of gravitational forces at work in the universe on the largest scales. In particular, he studies when and how galaxies like the Milky Way form, when the first stars began to shine, and how galaxies evolve.
