Didattica



Ricevimento

Modalità: II Sem: 2020-2021 Instruction will be in English, per qualsiasi domande o commenti Italiano va benissimo. Observational Astrophysics -- Astrofisica Osservativa: all sessions will be online only (unless something good happens later in the semester), through the Teams site for the course. Physics of Diffuse Cosmic Mediua-- Fisica deiMezzi Diffusi Cosmici: all sessions will be online only (alas),through the Teams platform. Discussion sessions will also be arranged for sort of supplementary material. Both courses will involve readings,and discussions. For the diffuse media course, there willalso be computational exercises. For thelaboratory course, observational material (taken in both real time for calibrations and archival data of a variety) will be used; programming languages include python, IDL, Matlab, Mathematica (although not advised).
