Numerical Methods for Astrophysical Problems

Linear Algebra and Numerical Analysis → Programming in Python and C++

This graduate-level learning path introduces the core numerical methods used to model astrophysical systems, from stellar interiors to galaxy formation. It covers finite difference and finite volume methods for fluid dynamics, N-body and particle-mesh techniques for gravitational dynamics, and an introduction to smoothed particle hydrodynamics. Learners will also gain practical experience with hydrodynamics codes and parallel computing, essential for modern computational astrophysics research.
