Information on the course exercises and on codes provided is posted here.
Executable programs are used for both pedagogical purposes and more complete
reaction calculations as the course advances. Some exercises involve analytical
and more formal derivations, to consolidate material delivered in the lectures.
Lectures (both slides + voice) are becoming available on-line day by day: linked here.
The final forms of the lecture slides and the supplementary information is linked below.
