“We were able to discover a new stellar mixing process only because of the immense computing power of the new Trillium machine. These are the computationally most intensive stellar convection and internal gravity wave simulations performed to date.”
—Falk Herwig, professor of physics and astronomy and director of ARC (University of Victoria)
