Simulations of cosmic gamma-rays

We have been given computer time by SNIC/SNAC at the large computer centres in Sweden to perform simulations of cosmic-ray and shock-wave generated gamma-rays in realistic N-body simulations of cosmic structure formation. This can give a realistic estimate of the backgrounds to expect when searching for dark matter signals, for instance.

For some recent information about this exciting topic, see the talk by one of our collaborators, Christoph Pfrommer at CITA, Toronto,Canada.
