Lecture 1.  Júlio Fabris: 

The Physics of Black Holes

In this lecture, we will revise the main aspects of the structure and formation process of black holes, their thermodynamics properties and stability. We discuss their quasi-normal modes excitations and the possible observational signatures.

​

Lecture 2.  Renée Hložek:

Cosmological constraints with the microwave sky

In this lecture I will review the physics of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and how we use observations of the CMB to constrain cosmological parameters like the dark matter, dark energy and baryon densities. I'll describe the data analysis techniques we use to make these measurements from the ground, and how we can use microwave observations to also learn new things about important epochs in the universe, like that of cosmic reionisation.

Mini Lecture.  Luciano Casarini: 

Non linear matter power spectrum with Dark Energy

In this lecture we revise several methods based on numerical simulations in order to predict non-linear matter power spectra of dark energy (DE) models. We discuss the limit of their accuracy and how improve it for likelihood analyses.
