BOINC project; Cosmology@Home

Cosmology@Home

More information, help and support is avalable for this project on the the website; www.irelandboinc.com

This project is similar in nature to science projects like SETI@home, Rosetta@home, ClimatePrediction.net and World Community Grid. But all BOINC projects are completely independent from each other, they just use the same software to carry out the computation.

About Cosmology@Home

The goal of Cosmology@Home is to search for the model that best describes our Universe and to find the range of models that agree with the available astronomical and particle physics data. In order to achieve this goal, participants in Cosmology@Home (i.e. you!) will compute the observable predictions of millions of theoretical models with different parameter combinations. We will use the results of your computations to compare all the available data with these models. In addition, the results from Cosmology@Home can help design future cosmological observations and experiments, and prepare for the analysis of future data sets, e.g. from the Planck spacecraft.

This project is only running a short time and is still in its early stages. The project might not have a constant stream of work units avalable and you will need to check your BOINC manager software from time to time and see the project is running OK. Updates and info about this project will be posted on the Irelandboinc.com website.
