Gravity 14

After an extensive introduction to the asymptotic safety approach to quantum gravity, this thesis explains recent key advances reported in four influential papers. Firstly, two exact solutions to th……続きを見る

This book reports on the extraordinary observation of TeV gamma rays from the Crab Pulsar, the most energetic light ever detected from this type of object. It presents detailed information on the pa……続きを見る

This book presents a detailed study of the Lanczos potential in general relativity by using tetrad formalisms. It demonstrates that these formalisms offer some simplifications over the tensorial met……続きを見る

In the course of the development of electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions, the concept of (internal) gauge invariance grew up and established itself as an unavoidable dynamical principle in ……続きを見る

Ernst Mach (1838–1916) zählt zu den bedeutendsten Naturwissenschaftlern und Philosophen des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts. In der Physik gilt er als Wegbereiter von Einsteins Relativitätstheorie und Kont……続きを見る

Devised at the beginning of the 20th century by french physicists Charles Fabry and Alfred Perot, the Fabry-Perot optical cavity is perhaps the most deceptively simple setup in optics, and today a k……続きを見る

This undergraduate textbook provides a simple, concise introduction to tensor algebra and analysis, as well as special and general relativity. With a plethora of examples, explanations, and exercise……続きを見る

This volume presents a selection of articles based on inspiring lectures held at the “Capri” Advanced Summer School, an original event conceived and promoted by Leonida Antonio Gizzi and Ralph Assma……続きを見る

This edited volume features essays written in honor of Ernst Mach. It explores his life, work, and legacy. Readers will gain a better understanding of this natural scientist and scholar who made maj……続きを見る

I pianeti del sistema solare sono tra gli oggetti che più alimentano le fantasie degli aspiranti astronomi. In quanti non hanno sognato, da bambini, di diventare astronauti e di essere la prima pers……続きを見る

This textbook offers a readily comprehensible introduction to classical Newtonian gravitation, which is fundamental for an understanding of classical mechanics and is particularly relevant to Astrop……続きを見る

This book discusses in detail the special theory of relativity without including all the instruments of theoretical physics, enabling readers who are not budding theoretical physicists to develop co……続きを見る

This unique textbook offers a mathematically rigorous presentation of the theory of relativity, emphasizing the need for a critical analysis of the foundations of general relativity in order to best……続きを見る

Modified gravity theories have been a main focus of theoretical cosmology research in the past decade or so, and have been quickly developing into a mature research field that attracts attention, in……続きを見る

À partir de phénomènes élémentaires est étudié la theorie de la relativité general d'Einstein, ensemble au principe de Galilei sur la chute libre des corps qui est la condition préalable. Le princip……続きを見る

In this book, all physical laws are derived from a small number of invariant integrals which express the conservation of energy, mass, or momentum. This new approach allows us to unify the laws of t……続きを見る

How does Einstein’s description of space and time compare with Doctor Who? Can James Bond really escape from an armor-plated railroad car by cutting through the floor with a laser concealed in a wri……続きを見る

Dark matter is a non luminous component of the cosmos. Yet, that can be detected or identified for its existence through the gravitational force. The gravity on the light emitting components that pa……続きを見る

Das Werk setzt sich kritisch mit dem Antirealismus in Philosophie und theoretischer Physik auseinander und plädiert für einen kritischen Realismus. Es werden antirealistische (konventionalistische, ……続きを見る

Until The End of Time, a whole new theory was written by Rodney Kawecki built on the bases that if the universe was created through the process of a big bang event that un-like some physicists who b……続きを見る

String theory corresponds to a theoretical (As the name implies) framework introduced in physics. This framework share similarities with particle physics, as it presents point like particles (from p……続きを見る

When my daughter Milla got down from her school bus she just laid down on the sidewalk beside Sam, the neighbour kid. I had to convince her that you learn by doing and also that she was not not lear……続きを見る

Classical theory looks at Einstein's black holes and Hawking radiation. The observational evidence points to the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) which captured an apparent black hole on 30 April, 2019……続きを見る

Bernd Sonne befasst sich in diesem essential mit der Speziellen Relativitätstheorie (SRT) Albert Einsteins. Die Theorien des wohl bedeutendsten Physikers des 20. Jahrhunderts, der unser physikalisch……続きを見る

This primer proposes a journey from Newton's dynamics to Einstein's relativity. It constitutes a pedagogical, rigorous, and self-contained introduction to the concepts and mathematical formulation o……続きを見る

This book derives and analyzes all solutions to the Kepler problem with dark energy (DE), presenting significant results such as: (a) all radial infinite motions obey Hubble’s law at large times; (b……続きを見る

This textbook develops Special Relativity in a systematic way and offers problems with detailed solutions to empower students to gain a real understanding of this core subject in physics. This new e……続きを見る

This primer is a collection of notes based on lectures that were originally given at IIT Madras (India) and at IFT Madrid (Spain). It is a concise and pragmatic course on applied holography focusing……続きを見る

This book is based on lectures given at the first edition of the Domoschool, the International Alpine School in Mathematics and Physics, held in Domodossola, Italy, in July 2018. It is divided into ……続きを見る
