L'esame sará esclusivamente orale durante il quale sará richiesto allo studente di esaminare e discutere un sistema astrofisico nel contesto degli argomenti trattati nel corso.
The exam will be oral. During the exam, the student will be required to discuss an astrophysical system within the context defined by the course program.
Examination and class participation
Triennale in fisica
BA/BS or equivalent in physcs
lezioni telematiche
Lectures and discussions, distance learning
Radiative transfer and spectral formation: atomic and molecular processes required for interpretation of spectroscopic and photometric data, non-equilibrium thermal processes
Hydrodynamics applied to astrophysics: equations of fluid dynamics, shocks in supersonic and hypersonic flows, radiation hydrodynamics, turbulence
Accretion and outflow phenomena (especially in binary systems and stellar winds)
Specific examples: gravitational structuring of the interstellar medium, explosions, expansion of ionized regions
to be supplied during the course, principally research articles and reviews
