Computational Researchers develop and use software that implements known physical laws to model nature or simulate the workings of nature, thereby making possible approaches to problems that are analytically intractable. Also, some computational researchers develop and implement algorithms for exploring “big data”. For example, computational particle physicists have studied the interactions of quarks in hadrons to identify how much mass is attributable to energy and to predict the existence of multi-quark particles that are stable but not yet discovered. Computational atomic and molecular physicists have guided experimental research by evaluating the cross section for an interaction from simulations of millions of events with a wide range of initial conditions. Computational astronomers “created” the current Universe by gravitationally evolving from the Big Bang to the present a cube containing a billion particles of dark and normal matter. Then, they “explored” the simulated Universe to identify galaxies and study their large-scale distribution.
