Learning outcomes
• Master the basic laws of physics, master the methods and principles of theoretical solution of nuclear physics problems to develop students' skills of experimentation, observation of nuclear phenomena and processing of experimental results.
• Will be free to focus on the qualitative and quantitative level in the main nuclear-physical phenomena associated with the manifestations of the quantum structure of matter at the level of elementary particles
• Develop skills of practical use of the acquired knowledge, methods and approaches in the further mastering of courses in the specialty of high-energy physics.
