Course contents :
 |
| The course is focused on the modelling of atomic structures from the simplest ones (with one electron) to complex systems (with N electrons). It is divided as follows :
I. Introduction
II. Atoms with one electron
III. Structure of alkali atoms
IV. Fine structure
V. Designation of atomic energy levels
VI. Atoms with two electrons
VII. Complex atoms |
 |
Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| At the end of the course, students will be able to use quantum physics concepts to model atomic structures. |
