Uchuu DR1 Halo Catalogues

The halo catalogues are created using the ROCKSTAR halo finder and it contains also information from the Merger Trees outputs. They are written in HDF5 format.

We provide halo catalogues for Uchuu, mini-Uchuu and micro-Uchuu. Shin-Uchuu is coming soon.
For Uchuu the number of files per snapshot is 100 with a total size ~1TB. The total data set is ~36TB.

The table below provides the description of all 83 columns in the halo catalogues (listed in arbitrary order).
