Title
A multi dimensional visualization and analysis toolkit for astrophysics
Abstract
The AstroMD toolkit is a visualization and analysis software, specifically oriented to astrophysical data representation. It is included in the project Cosmo.Lab, financed by the European Community, which involves several European astrophysical institutions and CINECA. This tool gives a 3D graphic representation of the data exploiting all the available information and making use of the immersive visualization techniques. AstroMD uses the most advanced visualization technology, based on virtual reality, in order to build a leading edge instrument both for scientific research and for cultural dissemination and education. It is developed using the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) by Kitware (http://www.kitware.com), a freely available visualization library portable on several platforms. AstroMD is an open source completely free code which is freely available (http://cosmolab.cineca.it).
