Description of the project Characteristics and main objectives of the research project:

  • studying the density profiles of cosmic voids and galaxy dark matter haloes using Doppler lensing
  • applying general relativistic cosmological simulation codes to the study
  • developing general relativistic cosmological simulations software
  • comparing results to observations (galaxy surveys)

The project is conducted in cooperation with: University of Tasmania, Australia
