BIND Halo Explorer

BIND (Baryonification and Intrinsic alignment Neural Diffusion model) is a field-level generative model trained on IllustrisTNG simulations. It maps dark matter-only fields to full hydrodynamical fields — including gas, stars, and dark matter — conditioned on IllustrisTNG’s 35-dimensional astrophysical and cosmological parameter space.

The explorer lets you tune parameters with sliders and watch BIND generate halo projections in real time, running inference on a live GPU.

⚠️ Note: The app runs on a cloud GPU and may take up to a minute to load on first visit.
