402-0369-00L | Research Colloquium in Astrophysics | 0 KP | 1K | M. Carollo, S. Lilly, M. R. Meyer, A. Refregier, K. Schawinski, H. M. Schmid | |
Kurzbeschreibung | During the semester there is a colloquium every week on actual research by the members of the Institute of Astrophysics. In general, colloquia are 20 minutes excluding discussion. They start with a general introduction, review techniques and methods of general interest and present results. The goal is to inform all members of the institute about current work. | ||||
Lernziel | A colloquium is a combination of a 10 minute conference paper preceded by a 10 minute widely understandable introduction. The discussion is limited to 10 minutes, but may continue privately. The research colloquia are announced in the ETH Vorlesungsverzeichnis, but are not publicized in the Wochenbulletin of the Department of Physics. All colloquia are given in English. | ||||
402-0394-00L | Theoretical Astrophysics and Cosmology | 10 KP | 4V + 2U | L. M. Mayer, A. Refregier | |
Kurzbeschreibung | This is the second of a two course series which starts with "General Relativity" and continues in the spring with "Theoretical Astrophysics and Cosmology", where the focus will be on applying general relativity to cosmology as well as developing the modern theory of structure formation in a cold dark matter Universe. | ||||
Lernziel | |||||
Inhalt | The course will cover the following topics: - Homogeneous cosmology - Thermal history of the universe, recombination, baryogenesis and nucleosynthesis - Dark matter and Dark Energy - Inflation - Perturbation theory: Relativistic and Newtonian - Model of structure formation and initial conditions from Inflation - Cosmic microwave background anisotropies - Spherical collapse and galaxy formation - Large scale structure and cosmological probes | ||||
