Stellar Physics
Explore the mysteries of astrophysics by delving into the physics of the lifecycle of stars, including the Sun, massive stars, white dwarfs, supernovae explosions, and supernova remnants. Through lectures and hands-on activities, learn how to use physical modeling to determine distances between celestial objects, their age and other key characteristics, and thereby gain insights into the structure of the universe filled with dark matter and dark energy.
