Theoretische Kernphysik
Instructors: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Sonia BaccaShortname: 08.128.751
Course No.: 08.128.751
Course Type: Vorlesung/Übung
Requirements / organisational issues
The aim of this course is to provide students with a survey of nuclear theory at the graduate level, and an introduction to modern nuclear theories and topics. While the focus is on theoretical aspects of nuclear physics, when possible, the subject will be linked to recent experimental progress and to applications, e.g. to astrophysics.Recommended prerequisites: Quantum mechanics and Electromagnetism
