NUCLEAR ASTROPHYSICS

The course Nuclear Astrophysics aims to provide students with a sufficiently broad picture of the combination and synergy of skills of two of the most fascinating fields of scientific research: Astrophysics and Nuclear Physics. After a discussion of peculiar aspects of the two research fields, experimental techniques and theoretical approaches, that have led to important results in Nuclear Astrophysics, will be presented.

The course consists of synchronous lessons, divided into 5 units, to be discovered in the study guide below.
