The following images were created using S2PLOT. All images are copyright Swinburne University of Technology unless otherwise indicated, and should not be used without permission.

6dF Galaxy Survey

Image:S2plot_6df_sample.png

50,000 galaxies (v < 15,000 km/s) from the 6dF Galaxy Survey second data release (Jones et al. 2005). With S2PLOT, it is simple to create an interactive redshift-space cone diagram.

Cosmological Simulation: Dark Matter Halo

In this example, the sub-halo structure in a Dark Matter halo is clearly visible. Along with coloured points for each particle, a real-time volume rendering helps to emphasise the regions of highest mass density.

Cosmological Simulation: Merger Tree

Image:S2plot_mergertree_sample.png

A merger tree showing the assembly of a galaxy over time from the Millennium Run (Springel et al. 2005). Colour indicates the formation epochs of progenitor halos.
