Using Nature's Cosmic Telescopes to study the Universe

We are studying the complex caustic patterns and critical light curves that are produced as a result of various distributions of dark matter. This is a key problem in science currently, since dark matter comprises the majority of matter in our Universe. Understanding what dark matter is, and how it interacts, will provide great insight into the underpinnings of our Universe. To carry out at higher capacity and better resolution, the resources at HKU HPC will be of great use, in terms of parallel computation power and memory quantity.
