Physics and mathematics students are as eager as ever to become acquainted withthefoundationsofgeneralrelativityandsomeofitsmajorapplicationsin astrophysics and cosmology.
Symmetries, coupled with the mathematical concept of group theory, are an essential conceptual backbone in the formulation of quantum field theories capable of describing the world of elementary particles.
It would seem that any specialist in plasma physics studying a medium in which the interaction between particles is as distance-dependent as the inter- action between stars and other gravitating masses would assert that the role of collective effects in the dynamics of gravitating systems must be decisive.
Die beiden Säulen der modernen Physik sind die Quantenmechanik zur Beschreibung der subatomaren Welt sowie die allgemeine Relativitätstheorie zum Verständnis der Gravitation und des Universums.

This richly illustrated book is unique in bringing Einstein's relativity to a higher level for the non-specialist than has ever been attempted before, using nothing more than grade-school algebra.
Einstein's Enigma or Black Holes in My Bubble Bath is a humourous and informal rendition of the story of gravitation theory from the early historic origins to the latest developments in astrophysics, focusing on Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity and black-hole physics.
The majority of books dealing with prospects for interstellar flight tackle the problem of the propulsion systems that will be needed to send a craft on an interstellar trajectory.
For this set of lectures we assumed that the reader has a reasonable back- ground in physics and some knowledge of general relativity, the modern theory of gravity in macrophysics, and cosmology.
This book contains the key themes and insights from the presentations and posters presented at the Seventh International Workshop on the TianQin Science Mission (TQ7).

This book in honor of Antonio Aurilia provides an overview of one of the most mysterious research fields in theoretical physics, namely the fundamental interactions at energies between the electroweak scale and the Planck scale.
This thesis explores a fundamental question in field theory: If we modify a theory by introducing a small parameter, can we recover the original theory by setting that parameter back to zero?

This book discusses the construction of analytical waveform models within the EOB formalism for a specific alternative theory of gravity, the so-called massless scalar-tensor theory.
Beginning with some basic facts about the observable universe the authors consider in successive chapters the complete range of topics that make up a degree course in cosmology and particle astrophysics.
