"Molecules pervade the cooler, denser parts of the Universe, in particular the reservoirs of the matter than forms stars and planets, and the gas in the centres of galaxies. These denser, cooler components of cosmic gas contain a significant fraction of the non-stellar baryonic matter in a galaxy and astronomers routinely use molecules to discover and explore these regions: the more complex the chemistry, the more details of the gas the molecules reveal. Hence, molecular line emissions offer astronomers exciting opportunities to learn how galaxies form, evolve and interact with each other.\n\r\nThe course will cover:\r\n\r\nA brief overview of what drives cosmic chemistry in different types of galaxies\r\nHands-on lectures on how to obtain useful astronomical information from raw telescope data\r\nDetermination of the suitable molecular tracers for many types of astronomical regions including starburst galaxies, AGNs, dwarf galaxies and high redshift galaxies.\n\nOutcome: Not Provided" . .

"Presential"@en . "In the master’s specialisation Astronomy and Data Science you focus on development and application of new data-mining technologies, fully embracing modern astronomy as a data rich science. You combine the research curriculum in Astronomy with in-depth training in Computer Science.\n\nThe Astronomy and Data Science master’s programme is built on world-class computational astrophysics research as well as hightech industry expertise. It covers a wide range of research areas studying complex astronomical phenomena, including radiative transfer, computation of dynamical internal galaxy structures and hydrodynamical modeling of galaxy formation and evolution of the intergalactic medium.\n\nThis two-year Astronomy and Data Sicence programme uniquely combines advanced Astronomy courses of the Leiden Observatory and relevant courses from the Computer Science master’s programme of the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science including advanced data mining and neural networks. To this end, the Leiden Observatory offers sophisticated computational facilities ranging from local computer clusters to high-performance systems at national and international computing centers.\n\nOutcome:\nDuring the programme, you learn to perform academically sound research and evaluate scientific information independently and critically. Without exception, you actively participate in current research within the institute and are individually supervised by our international scientific staff. Students with a Leiden degree in Astronomy become strong communicators and collaborators and can easily operate in an international setting. You will acquire extensive astronomical research experience and highly advanced analytical and problem solving skills."@en . . . . . . "2"@en . "FALSE" . . "Master"@en . "Thesis" . "2314.00" .
