Course Contents:
This course provides an introduction to modern nuclear theory. The lecture will be held in English, as all references are in English; questions and discussions in German are of course welcome. The homework problems will be designed to improve the understanding of and to explore the topics covered in the lecture.
Outline:
1) Guiding principles and introduction to nuclei and strong interactions
2) Basics of QCD, the theory of the strong interaction
3) Nuclear forces: scattering and bound states
4) Low resolution: pionless effective field theory
5) Many-body basics
6) Many-body methods for strongly interacting systems
7) High resolution: chiral effective field theory
8) Survey of applications to nuclei and nuclear matter
Literature:
Lecture notes in form of latexed chapters and additional reading material will be provided. An extensive set of material is also given at
