The results of the Universe@Home project will be used by the University of Cambridge! The cooperation will concern the reionisation of the Universe throughout the cosmic time. This process has a huge impact on the evolution of stars and galaxies. Although University of Cambridge has a vast computational power, the number of project run on their computers and other problems made Universe@Home a promising alternative. We will let you know about the details of the project as soon as we obtain the first results. ------------------------------------------ Wyniki otrzymywane w ramach projektu Universe@Home będą wykorzystane na Uniwersytecie w Cambridge! Współpraca będzie dotyczyć rejonizacji (ponownej jonizacji) we Wszechświata. Proces ten ma postawowe znaczenie dla ewolucji gwiazd i galaktyk. Pomimo tego, że Uniwersytet w Cambridge ma potęrzne komputery, ilość projektów które są tam prowadzene i inne problemy sprawiają, że Universe@Home stanowi bardzo obiecującą alternatywę. O szczegółach damy znać jak tylko otrzymamy pierwsze rezultaty tego projektu. Grzegorz Wiktorowicz National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences |

That is outstanding. You get all 8 cores of my i7-4770 now, reserving only a couple for GPU support when that time comes. |

#4 What Re-ionized the Universe? The early universe is thought to have been a dynamic place, and about 13 billion years ago, it underwent a so-called age of re-ionization. During this period, the universe's fog of hydrogen gas was clearing and becoming translucent to ultraviolet light for the first time. Scientists have long been puzzled over what caused this re-ionization to occur http://www.space.com/15936-astronomy-mysteries-science-countdown.html |

Thanks for the nice link! What have driven the age of re-ionization is indeed a well-known problem, which is still unresolved. We hope that Universe@Home will help to shed some light on it! Grzegorz Wiktorowicz National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences |

First batch of Universe-UV application has been released Today. Work Units are very short at the moment and temporary only Windows64 and Linux64 versions available. Krzysztof 'krzyszp' Piszczek Member of Radioactive@Home team My Patreon profile Universe@Home on YT |

Were there only 60 tasks sent out recently? I saw the post on WUProp that this was active again. |

That was resends of not validated tasks only. A new version of this app (now 0.04) What's new?? Bugfix? |

#4 What Re-ionized the Universe? That's a strange statement. I think it still is. |
