Abstract

The THESAN simulation project is a method used to understand the universe. However, the usage of such simulations often requires a lot of computation, complex technology, and high-end equipment, among which James Webb Telescope (JWST) is one of the most important devices in the simulation. The purpose of this study is to analyze and introduce the function and impact of JWST in the THESAN simulation project. First of all, this article briefly introduces the THESAN simulation project and JWST. Then, the study presents the JWST observation mission of galaxy clusters, clusters of galaxies, nebulae and exoplanets in the specific data, as well as the strategy of ERO program in detail. Finally, the paper describes the impact and improvement of the observations made after the JWST launch on the THESAN simulation project and various related data. According to the analysis, these results help stakeholders understand the function of JWST in the THESAN simulation project more quickly.
