Abstract
Cosmological simulation dataset based on compressible cosmological hydrodynamics simulation code Nyx (https://ccse.lbl.gov/Research/NYX/). The Nyx simulation data are post-analysis data composed of 3D arrays in space (such as dark matter density and temperature).
Instructions:
ARRAY DIMENSION: 3D
DIMENSIONAL SIZE: 512x512x512
DATA NATURE (INTEGER or DECIMAL): DECIMAL
ENDIAN FORMAT: LITTLE
PRECISION (DOUBLE, SINGLE): SINGLE
More description:
Note that some fields such as the dark matter density in Nyx dataset have very large value ranges while a large majority of data are fairly small (close to 1 or 0).
