20402151 - ASTROPARTICLE PHYSICS - MODULE A

The course is devoted to a review of the interdisciplinar research activity in elementary particle physics and astrophysics. The main topics concerning both fields of elementary particle physics and astrophysics will be discussed in the framework of a phenomenological description and taking into account the main detectors actually on data taking or planned in the near future.

Type of delivery of the course

Lectures. For each main topic, one or more lessons will be devoted to a discussion of the scientific scenario, while the purpose of a further lesson will be a presentation of the actual research activities in the specific topic. During the last few lessons, the students will be guided to prepare the seminar, that will be the main matter of the final examination.

Type of evaluation

Oral exam: discussion and presentation of a topic to be agreed upon.
