Learning outcomes
P1. Know and understand scientific concepts and modern theories of chemistry, as well as the fundamentals of related sciences. P2. Deeply understand the basic facts, concepts, principles and theories related to the subject area mastered during the master's program, use them to solve complex tasks and problems, as well as conduct research in the relevant field of chemistry. P5. To know methods of computer modelling of a structure, parameters and dynamics of chemical systems.Р9. Collect, evaluate and analyse data that are necessary to solve complicated tasks in chemistry by using corresponding methods and instruments to work with data. Р14. Interpret experimentally obtained data and sirch for correlations with corresponding theories in chemistry.

Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
This course is using knowledge aquired upon studying crystallochemistry (structure and symetry of crystals), physics (model of atoms, diffraction and interference of waves), mathematics (basics of integral and differencial calculations, differential equations).
Course content
The subject "Methods to study structures of substances in different states of metters" is designed to enable students to learn and master the physical principles of the diffraction method of studying the structure of crystals (X-ray diffraction method), geometric structure of molecules (gas electrography), structure of simple monoatomic liquids (method Fourier integral analysis), local structure of atoms using the EXAFS method (long fine structure of X-ray absorption spectra), methods of analysis of the obtained experimental data. It is planned to get students to know the method of low-angle X-ray scattering and the use of synchrotron radiation and thermal neutrons in structural research through writing of reviews.
