Classes will take place in the Teaching Center, on mondays, wednesdays and fridays, from 13h to 16h;
Test will take place on 07/03, at 13h;
The final grade is N = 0,8 x Test + 0,2 x Exercises - these exercises will be posted here during the first week.
I've recorded some classes to help english speakers follow this course. The division of subjects is not exactly the same as in the regular classes, but I try to explain it in the introductory class (Class_00).
Class 00 - Course Details
Class 01 - Basics
Class 02 - Radioactive Decay
Class 03 - Decay Dynamics & Kinetics
Class 04 - Decay Energy
Class 05 - Nuclear Equilibrium & Natural Radioactivity
Class 06 - Nuclear Models (a very quick intro)
Class 07 - Nuclear Reactions
Class 08 - Interaction of Charged Particles With Matter
Class 09 - Interaction of Photons With Matter
Class 10 - Interaction of Neutrons With Matter
Class 11 - Radiation Detectors
Class 12 - Applications of Radiation and Nuclear Physics
LINK TO THE GRADED EXERCISE LIST
This list must be handed to me until the time of the final test, with no delays.
(these lists are not for grade and I don't expect them delivered to me, but they may be quite useful for following the course and studying for the test.)
Exercise List 1 (physical classes 1 and 2)
Exercise List 2 (physical classes 3 and 4)
Exercise List 3 (somewhat more theoretical/conceptual questions)
Resolution for some of the exercises in the lists
Didactic text of the IAEA on nuclear physics (in english)
Nuclear Wallet Cards: a simplified (but very accurate) collection of nuclear data
Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data Files (ENSDF): All the most reliable data you will find on any given nuclide, but in a quite complex form. This shuld only be useful for people who will work in the field!
An Android app developed by the IAEA with basically all data you'll need for all nuclides.
A good site (in english) about the ABC of nuclear science
A blog (in portuguese) that I "keep" (or would like to keep) about physics for the laypeople
