z ~ 7-10 Galaxies in the HUDF and GOODS Fields: UV Luminosity Functions (2008, background): “The volume density of ∼ 1011 M⊙ halos is expected to increase 1000 fold from z ∼ 10 to z ∼ 3 − 4 (see, e.g., Figure 2 of Springel et al. 2005).”

Substructures in hydrodynamical cluster simulations (2008, methodology): “However, in semi–analytical models (like De Lucia & Blaizot 2007) based on DM simulations of comparable resolution (like the Millennium Run,Springel et al. 2005) about half of the galaxies within the virial radius of the parent cluster are expected to have lost their DM halos atz = 0, while in our…”
Cosmic evolution of the atomic and molecular gas contents of galaxies (2011, methodology): “The Parkinson et al. scheme is tuned to match merger trees extracted from the Millennium simulation of Springel et al. (2005).”
Evolution of the cosmic web (2014, methodology): “…structure of the cosmos evolves into a pronounced and intricate filigree of filamentary features, dented by dense compact clumps at the nodes of the network (Davis et al. 1985; White et al. 1987; Jenkins & et al. 1998; Colberg, Krughoff & Connolly 2005a; Springel et al. 2005; Dolag et al. 2006).”

Galaxy formation as a function of large-scale environment (2009, methodology): “Notable examples of the latter procedure are the studies of Bower et al. (2006), Croton et al. (2006), De Lucia et al. (2006) and Font et al. (2008), based on merger histories derived from the Millennium Simulation (Springel et al. 2005).”
The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: Color and Luminosity Dependence of Galaxy Clustering at z ∼ 1 (2007, methodology): “We compare our clustering results for blue and red galaxies with the recent semi-analytic galaxy formation model of Croton et al. (2006) applied to the Millennium Run N-body dark matter simulation (Springel et al. 2005).”
The colours of satellite galaxies in groups and clusters (2008, methodology): “The Millennium Simulation (Springel et al. 2005) was carried out by the Virgo Consortium and it is one of the largest simulations of the growth of structure in the ΛCDM cosmology to date, containing approximately 10 billion dark matter particles in a cubic volume of (500h−1 Mpc)3 with a particle mas”
Acoustic oscillations in the SDSS DR4 luminous red galaxy sample power spectrum (2005, result): “We have seen that acoustic features seem to survive at mildly nonlinear scale (k & 0.1h Mpc−1), which is in agreement with the results of the recent N-body simulations (Springel et al. 2005; Seo & Eisenstein 2005).”

(2006) semi-analytic model for galaxies in the dark matter haloes of the Millennium Simulation (Springel et al. 2005), and assume the Binney & Tremaine (1987) dynamical friction time-scale for objects on a circular orbit when the subhaloes…”
Structure finding in cosmological simulations: the state of affairs (2013, result): “…models (e.g. Cole et al. 1994, 2000; Croton et al. 2006), gravitational lensing calculations (e.g. Kaiser & Squires 1993; Bartelmann et al. 1998; Diemand et al. 2008), or directly in comparison to observations (e.g. Davis et al. 1985; Klypin et al. 1999b; Springel et al. 2005; Komatsu et al. 2011).”
The reversal of the star formation-density relation in the distant universe (2007, methodology): “The series of simulated lightcones of the Universe that are used in this work was produced by Kitzbichler & White (2007), who applied the semi-analytical model of Croton et al. (2006) tothe Millennium Run simulation (Springel et al. 2005).”
The universality of the virial halo mass function and models for non-universality of other halo definitions (2015, background): “In the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model, structures – up to protogalactic scales – form through the amplification of small density fluctuations via gravitational instability (Longair 1998; Springel et al. 2005; Mo et al. 2010; Angulo et al. 2012).”
