Computational astrophysics and statistics  

Description

The aim of the course is to provide knowledge and understanding of the fundamental numerical techniques currently employed in astrophysical simulations. The student will learn to solve ordinary and partial derivatives differential equations describing interesting astronomical problems. At the end of the course the student will be able to design and run simple numerical simulations of gasdynamical and N-body astronomical problems. A main goal of the class is to accustom the students to research fields which heavily use simulations and to understand merits and caveats of such studies.
