INTRODUCTION

When published in 2005, the Millennium Run was the largest ever simulation of the formation of structure within the ΛCDM cosmology. It uses 1010 particles to follow the dark matter distribution in a cubic region 500h−1Mpc on a side, and has a spatial resolution of 5h−1kpc. Application of simplified modelling techniques to the stored output of this calculation allows the formation and evolution of the ~107 galaxies more luminous than the Small Magellanic Cloud to be simulated for a variety of assumptions about the detailed physics involved. As part of the activities of the German Astrophysical Virtual Observatory we have created relational databases to store the detailed assembly histories both of all the haloes and subhaloes resolved by the simulation, and of all the galaxies that form within these structures for two independent models of the galaxy formation physics. We have implemented a Structured Query Language (SQL) server on these databases. This allows easy access to many properties of the galaxies and halos, as well as to the spatial and temporal relations between them. Information is output in table format compatible with standard Virtual Observatory tools. With this announcement (from 1/8/2006) we are making these structures fully accessible to all users. Interested scientists can learn SQL and test queries on a small, openly accessible version of the Millennium Run (with volume 1/512 that of the full simulation). They can then request accounts to run similar queries on the databases for the full simulations.

In 2008 a second simulation was completed with the same cosmology, the same output structure and the same number of particles as the Millennium Simulation, but in a 5 times smaller box and thus with 125 times better mass resolution. Halo data were publicly released in 2009 with the submission of the paper describing this Millennium-II Simulation, and joint galaxy catalogues for both simulations will be released as these are constructed and validated.

DATABASE ACCESS

There are two databases, one openly accessible with volume 1/512 of the full simulation ('milli-Millennium'), and one for the full simulation. The latter requires an account. Once the queries needed for your project have been developed and tested using the milli-Millennium databases, this account can be requested by e-mail.

Milli-Millennium Database
Full Millennium Database (registered users)
 NEW: Millennium-II and Millennium Database (registered users)

The databases have an SQL query interface, and allow return of the data in a number of formats. A number of examples, and a detailed explanation of all columns is included under the above links.
There is also a mirror site with a nearly equivalent data base server at the Institute for Computational Cosmology, Durham University.

RELATED LINKS

The Millennium simulation is a project of the Virgo consortium, an international grouping of computational cosmologists. The simulation was carried out at the Rechenzentrum Garching (RZG), the computing centre of the Max-Planck Society, using a specially adapted version of the publicly available code GADGET. The galaxy formation models made available through the database interface have been constructed at the Max-Planck-Institute for Astrophysics, Garching, and the Institute for Computational Cosmology, Durham University. The database structure has been designed by Gerard Lemson as part of his work for the German Astronomical Virtual Observatory (GAVO). He also constructed the database interface web-service, and wrote the example queries and the documentation.
