  • Exact Space-Times in Einstein's General Relativity

    par Jerry B. Griffiths, Jiří Podolský ...
    Collections series Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics
    Einstein's theory of general relativity is a theory of gravity and, as in the earlier Newtonian theory, much can be learnt about the character of gravitation and its effects by investigating particular idealised examples. This book describes the basic solutions of Einstein's equations with a particular emphasis on what they mean, both geometrically and physically. Concepts such as big bang and big ... En savoir plus

    par Robert Piccioni ...
    Collections series Everyone's Guide Series
    All of modern astrophysics and cosmology stands on the foundation of General Relativity that is best expressed in tensors.This book, and its sequel, General Relativity 4: Astrophysics & Cosmology, present the clearest, most comprehensible, and most complete introduction to the tensor calculus of differential topology, which Einstein used to explain the cosmos. Derivations that are difficult to ... En savoir plus

  • Introduction to the AdS/CFT Correspondence

    par Horaƫiu Năstase ...
    Providing a pedagogical introduction to the rapidly developing field of AdS/CFT correspondence, this is one of the first texts to provide an accessible introduction to all the necessary concepts needed to engage with the methods, tools and applications of AdS/CFT. Without assuming anything beyond an introductory course in quantum field theory, it begins by guiding the reader through the basic ... En savoir plus

  • Einstein's Physics

    Atoms, Quanta, and Relativity - Derived, Explained, and Appraised

    par Ta-Pei Cheng ...
    Many regard Albert Einstein as the greatest physicist since Newton. What exactly did he do that is so important in physics? We provide an introduction to his physics at a level accessible to an undergraduate physics student. All equations are worked out in detail from the beginning. Einstein's doctoral thesis and his Brownian motion paper were decisive contributions to our understanding of matter ... En savoir plus

  • Extra Dimensions in Space and Time

    par Itzhak Bars, John Terning ...
    Collections series Multiversal Journeys
    In physics, the idea of extra spatial dimensions originates from Nordstöm’s 5-dimensional vector theory in 1914, followed by Kaluza-Klein theory in 1921, in an effort to unify general relativity and electromagnetism in a 5 dimensional space-time (4 dimensions for space and 1 for time). Kaluza–Klein theory didn’t generate enough interest with physicist for the next five decades, due to its problems ... En savoir plus

  • Gravity, Strings and Particles

    A Journey Into the Unknown

    par Maurizio Gasperini ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    New fundamental forces of Nature? New forms of "dark'' energy? Signals from epochs preceding the Big Bang? Is our space-time unique? Only a joint study of the three topics examined in this book – gravity, strings and particles – may provide answers to these questions. Such a study may also provide the key to solving one of the most fascinating mysteries of modern science, namely: Besides time and ... En savoir plus

  • Non-minimal Higgs Inflation and Frame Dependence in Cosmology

    par Christian Friedrich Steinwachs ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis explores the idea that the Higgs boson of the Standard Model and the cosmological inflation are just two manifestations of one and the same scalar field - the Higgs-inflation. By this unification two energy scales that are separated by many orders of magnitude are connected, thereby building a bridge between particle physics and cosmology. An essential ingredient for making this model ... En savoir plus

  • Basic Relativity

    An Introductory Essay

    par Péter Hraskó ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This Brief presents a new way of introducing relativity theory, in which perplexing relativistic effects such as time dilation and Lorentz contraction are explained prior to the discussion of Lorentz-transformation. The notion of relativistic mass is shown to contradict the spirit of relativity theory and the true significance of the mass-energy relation is contrasted with the popular view of it. ...

  • Advanced Statistical Methods for Astrophysical Probes of Cosmology

    par Marisa Cristina March ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis explores advanced Bayesian statistical methods for extracting key information for cosmological model selection, parameter inference and forecasting from astrophysical observations. Bayesian model selection provides a measure of how good models in a set are relative to each other - but what if the best model is missing and not included in the set? Bayesian Doubt is an approach which ... En savoir plus

  • Quantum Aspects of Black Holes

    Modifié par Xavier Calmet ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Beginning with an overview of the theory of black holes by the editor, this book presents a collection of ten chapters by leading physicists dealing with the variety of quantum mechanical and quantum gravitational effects pertinent to black holes. The contributions address topics such as Hawking radiation, the thermodynamics of black holes, the information paradox and firewalls, Monsters, ... En savoir plus

  • Non-linear Data Analysis on the Sphere

    The Quest for Anomalies in the Cosmic Microwave Background

    par Gregor Rossmanith ...
    Collections series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This work deals with the search for signatures of non-Gaussianities in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Probing Gaussianity in the CMB addresses one of the key questions in modern cosmology because it allows us to discriminate between different models of inflation, and thus concerns a fundamental part of the standard cosmological model.The basic goal here is to adapt complementary methods ...
