1- Fundamental stellar dynamics - relaxation, collisionless dynamics - distribution functions, Jeans eqs, etc.

2- Stellar orbits and dynamical models - orbits in various potentials, Jeans Thm, DF models, Schwarzschild, M2M

3- Galactic disk dynamics

4- The Galactic bulge - structure - dynamics - origin

5- The Galactic halo - mass, extent, shape - substructure, inner/outer halo

1- The use and abuse of N-body codes - relaxation in spheres and disks, collective enhancement - code structure, block time steps

3- Setting up equilibrium models - choosing from a DF, Jeans equations and their limitations - disk-bulge-halo models

4- Analysis "on the fly" - code testing - made-to-measure

5- SPH basics - numerical viscosity - Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities - other problems and their amelioration
