LIQUID PHYSICS
(objectives)
THE AIM OF THIS COURSE IS TO GIVE AN INTRODUCTION TO THE MODERN PHYSICS OF FLUIDS. IT CONSISTS IN THE STUDY OF THE FLUID PHENOMENOLOGY AT THE MICROSCOPIC LEVEL. IN PARTICULAR THE COURSE WILL FOCUS ON STATISTICAL MECHANICS AND COMPUTER SIMULATION METHODS AIMED TO DESCRIBE THE EXPERIMENTAL PHENOMENOLOGY STARTING FROM LAWS OF INTERATOMIC FORCES. IN THE COURSE IT WILL BE ADDRESSED PROBLEMS CONCERNING THE DYNAMICS OF FLUIDS STUDIED IN TERMS OF THE CORRELATION FUNCTIONS AND THE DYNAMIC RESPONSE FUNCTIONS.
