Description
Our universe has begun about 13.7 billion years ago with Big Bang, and developed through variety of phenomena till the present, our rich world now. To learn the mechanism of the evolution of the universe as well as various phenomena requires scientific efforts from many fields. Visible matters of the universe are made of elements of about 100 species which were also produced along the evolution of the universe. Nuclear reactions produce new elements as well as anomalous energies, and play a key role in various stellar phenomena along the evolution. Nuclear physics study together with observations of elements as well as neutrinos and photons of various wave-lengths opens up a new scope to understand “our universe”.
Syllabus:
1. Nuclear phenomena and nuclear physics in the universe
2. Evolution models of the universe
3. Nuclear Burning in the Sun – Hydro-static burning
4. Heavy element synthesis
