  • Abstract
    Using galactic clusters, galactic formation, and the first stars as examples, the author demonstrates how adaptive mesh refinement techniques can be successfully applied to cosmological research. The method combines adaptive refinement of interesting regions with modern grid-based methods for solving hydrodynamic equations
