[AltasEnergias] Mini-Course on Compact Stars Astrophysics in ITA, Friday 21, 2.00 p.m. - Rodrigo Negreiros - IF-UFF , next friday August, 20, 2.00 p.m.

[Manoel Messias Ferreira Junior]

The Nuclear Physics , Astrophysics and Cosmology from Instituto Tecnológico
de Aeronáutica (ITA) has the placer to announce that Professor Rodrigo
Negreiros from Federal Fluminense University will give a short course of 3
classes that will begin on Friday, August 21, at 2.00p.m., and will
continue next week on Tuesday, s5 and Thurday, 27, at 2.00 p.m.. In each
class we will have one last hour dedicated to exercises and to make
questions and discussion with the speaker.

The mini-course will be in English and on line.

In the day before each class we will send the link to google meet, for the
ones that will contact Manuel Malheiro at malheiro at ita.br

It does not need any registration and is open for everyone.

Please announce to your colleagues and students. Thanks

Mini-Course on Compact Stars Astrophysics

Rodrigo  Negreiros
Instituto de Física
Universidade Federal Fluminense, Niterói

In this series of lectures I will discuss the astrophysics of compact
stars. It will be particularly focused on macroscopical and astrophysical
aspects of such objects. We will discuss the general relativistic framework
necessary for properly describing self-gravitating relativistic matter,
covering from the simple spherically symmetric case to more complex
scenarios such as rotating and magnetized objects. The evolution of such
objects will also be subject of study - we will discuss the thermal and
spin evolution of such objects both on a theoretical and observational
framework.
Finally I will present an overview of the current picture of the different
manifestation of compact stars in an astrophysical context, as well as the
current state of observations and future challenges.
