The two-body problem in general relativity can only be handled by means of
numerical supercomputer simulations, such as those developed and performed by
the cooperation partner AEI (Max-Planck Institute for Gravitational physics in Golm,
also known as Albert-Einstein Institute).
Curved spacetimes are described via tensor fields, but appropriate visualizations
methods are rare, especially when considering the huge data size in the region of
100GB and more in this specific case, and also due to time-dependency of these data.
In the project ART appropriate visualizations for tensor fields are investigated.
The possible range of applicability thereby is not limited to just general relativity,
but of broad interest also in other domains like medical imaging.
Further information is available in the detailed project description. |
