This course covers the principles of gas dynamics with a focus on astrophysical applications (e.g. self-gravitating fluids, instabilities, shock waves, turbulence, accretion disks) and an introduction to General Relativity with a focus on astrophysical applications (e.g. Schwarzschild and Robertson-Walker metrics, Friedmann equations, gravity waves).

Dynamic and gravitational principles applied to astrophysics. Potential theory, orbital mechanics, virial theorem, Jeans' equations, equilibrium and stability of self-gravitating systems, kinetic theory. Applications to galactic structure and evolution, mergers, dark matter, evolution of star clusters and galactic nuclei and solar system dynamics.
