Prerequisites
This course is intended for Master
students (or “Diplom-Studierende im Hauptstudium”) with a
background knowledge in General Relativity.
For students who have only taken the course
“Relativity and Cosmology I” it is
recommended to also take this semester’s course
“Relativity and Cosmology II”.
It is not necessary to have taken a course on Quantum Field
Theory, as all the parts of QFT needed for this course will
be presented.
