SUMMARY:The Reionization of our Local Universe - Ilian Iliev (Sussex)

DESCRIPTION:The neighborhood in the immediate cosmological vicinity of our
  Milky Way is known as the Near-Field. Due to its proximity to us\, it is 
 the best-observed region of the Universe. As such it is the most interesti
 ng to study\, to understand and to try and simulate\, as there is a wealth
  of observational information available that could allow us to significant
 ly advance our knowledge on e.g. large-scale structure and galaxy formatio
 n\, feedback processes and the nature of dark matter in a range of differe
 nt local environments. I will present the work we have been doing over the
  years to address this problem. This has been largely based on constrained
  simulations of the Near-Field from the CLUES project\, which use our ever
  expanding knowledge of the local structures and their velocity fields to 
 create numerical structure formation simulations that faithfully reproduce
  the local universe at present. The main focus of our work has been on und
 erstanding the potentially detectable local signatures of Cosmic Reionizat
 ion\, for example on the number and properties of satellites of the Local 
 Group and locations where some of the First Stars may be located (cosmic a
 rchaeology)\, which I will both discuss.
