This course “Computational Physics” aims to introduce numerical methods of computational physics of relevance to the research performed in the IMPRS. The course splits in two parts: The first half discusses numerical solutions of linear systems, of ordinary differential equations, and of partial differential equations. The second half of the course lays the foundations for numerical relativity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There will be 16 lectures of 50 minutes each between March 7 and April 14, 2022.<\/strong> The course will be given by several lecturers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lectures will take place from 2pm to 3pm on Mondays and Fridays, and from 11am to 12pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays<\/strong> of each week, with the exceptions March 14 – 17 (break due to the LVC Meeting) and March 21 – 25 (break due to the DPG Spring Meeting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All lectures can be attended in person in room 0.01<\/strong> at the AEI Potsdam (all attendees must wear a mouth-and-nose cover during the lectures), or via Zoom<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When available, the lecture notes<\/strong> and lecture recordings<\/strong> can be found under “Course Materials” on the pages of the individual lectures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There will be three problem sets<\/a> and four discussion sessions with the lecturers. All students should do at least half of the problems, and are strongly encouraged to participate in the discussion sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wed, April 20, 11am-12pm discussion of problem set 3<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This course “Computational Physics” aims to introduce numerical methods of computational physics of relevance to the research performed in the IMPRS.
