Course Description

This MSc course aims at providing an introduction to high-performance computing using astrophysical phenomena as examples. The course is a mixture between actual class room lectures and hands-on coding exercises. It therefore is not only targeting the students from the astrophysics speciality of our MSc in Theoretical Physics, but rather of interest to all students.

Please keep an eye on Moodle.
