Abstract
The main goal of this course it to provide deeper insight into the fluid mechanics and its application in modern theoretical physics.
Learning outcomes
After finishing this course student will be able to understand to modern kinetic theory and his relationship with hydrodynamics.This knowledge can be used in many areas of physics, for example in elemental particle physics or astrophysics.
