Note Editore

This book suitable for post graduates in Physics and Astrophysics aims at introducing the theory of general relativity as an important background for doing astrophysics. Starting from a detailed discussion of the various mathematical concepts for doing general relativity, the book introduces the geometric description of gravity. It gives a brief historical perspective to classical mechanics and electrodynamics making an attempt to establish the necessity of special relativity as propounded by Einstein extending to General Relativity. This bookis agood starting point for post graduates wanting to pursue the modern topics of Cosmology, High energy astrophysics and related areas.




Sommario

Mathematical Preliminaries. Pre Relativistic Physics. Special Relativity. General Relativity. Accretion Astrophysics. Inertial Forces in GR. Gravity as a Gauge Theory.

Note Libraio

Gravitation is a treatise that opens up the topic of gravity and Einstein's theory of general relativity and its application to students of physics and astrophysics, taking one from the very familiar topics of classical mechanics and electrodynamics through special relativity onto general relativity, without going through the qualms of abstract mathematics. Dealind with the topics of gravitational collapse, waves and lensing after the required introduction to the theory and specific solutions, this book discusses the important topic of accretion dynamics and introduces the discussion on inertial forces in general relativity. Finally, it brings in a brief discussion of gravity as a gauge theory, a topic relevant to all physicist dealing withthe other three fundamental interactions, which are explained mainly through the gauge approach.
