Summary

Description
English: Portion of a simulation through a cosmological thermal phase transition, showing part of a slice through a three-dimensional box. The simulation was for a weak first order phase transition with the bubble walls moving slower than the speed of sound (deflagration). The three-velocity of the plasma is shown, with 'hotter' colours showing greater velocity.

Image produced in VisIt using the 'hot_desat' colourmap.

This is image 600 in a sequence of images from 0-3199.
