Hi all,
After a lot of hard work from Matt and Jeff, yt now has the capability
to generate multivariate volume renderings. Lately Matt added Rayleigh
scattering to the ray tracer, which produces superb results in some of
these renderings. I just wanted to showcase a couple of renderings to
show what's possible with it.

Reionization simulation at redshift 8.5 in a 12.5 Mpc/h box with 512^3
resolution, unigrid. 10^6 solar mass dark matter resolution.

Dwarf galaxies forming in a pre-heated medium at redshift 17. The
clouds are on the order of 10^7 solar masses. The simulation considers
radiative feedback from Pop III stars and their remnant black holes.
Cheers,
John
