120 Grid Computing in Research and Education
California Institute of Technology in Pasadena: It has a project to investigate
the efficiency of detecting the decay of the Higgs boson into two energetic
photons. The work involves generating, simulating, reconstructing, and
analyzing tens of millions of proton-proton collisions. For more information,

University of California, San Diego: It has a project to simulate the evolution
of the universe, through an adaptive mesh renement code for cosmology
simulations (Enzo). Once the code is ported to the TeraGrid, the simulation
will be from shortly after the Big Bang, through the formation of gas clouds
and galaxies, all the way to the present era. For m ...
