Advanced Observational Astrophysics

Code: PHYS362

Credits: 15

Semester: Whole Session

This module provides a detailed overview of the practicalities of observational astronomy across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. The module also incorporates the Astrophysics Field Trip to the Teide Observatory, Tenerife, Canary Islands. This is a one-week trip where students will employ at least the Mons and Liverpool Telescopes (plus others if available) to plan, carry out, and analyse astronomical observations. Project work is also carried out, in-situ based on these data.
