The Roadrunner Universe Project: Science<br />
• SDSS-III/BOSS baryon acoustic oscillations simulations and mock catalogs<br />
• SDSS-III Lyman-alpha runs, signature of BAO scale in Lyman-alpha forest<br />
• JDEM weak lensing<br />
• High-resolution simulations for dark matter searches<br />
• LSST simulations for a variety of projects (weak lensing, clusters, BAO)<br />
• Large-volume cluster simulations and large-scale flows<br />
• Addition of new physics:<br />
‣ Self-consistent dark energy models and inclusion of dark energy fluctuations (LSST ISW)<br />
‣ Nonparametric w(z) simulations<br />
‣ Calibration of baryonic effects in weak lensing<br />
‣ New code for modified gravity (cosmological PPN)<br />
‣ More general primordial fluctuations (running of spectral index, non-Gaussianity, warm/nonthermal dark<br />
matter)<br />
‣ Nonlinear clustering of neutrinos<br />
‣ Your favorite idea here --<br />
• Extension of Calibration Framework to address expanded “physics space” and smaller<br />
errors<br />
