This volume presents a selection of articles based on inspiring lectures held at the "e;Capri"e; Advanced Summer School, an original event conceived and promoted by Leonida Antonio Gizzi and Ralph Assmann that focuses on novel schemes for plasma-based particle acceleration and radiation sources, and which brings together researchers from the conventional accelerator community and from the high-intensity laser-matter interaction research fields.
Das vorliegende Buch bietet eine gut verständliche Einführung in die spezielle und allgemeine Relativitätstheorie und zeigt einen Weg auf, wie beide Themen standardmäßig in das Bachelorstudium der Physik integriert werden können.
This monograph provides an introduction to deformations of Poincare symmetries focusing on models with a Lie group momentum space and associated non-commutative space-times.
The tremendous progress in astronomical observations over the past sixty years has revealed a vast structured universe whose fundamental parti- cles are galaxies, and clusters thereof.
This thesis addresses two very different but equally important topics in the very broad fields of astrophysics and cosmology: (I) the generation of cosmological magnetic fields and (II) gravitational fragmentation of the Cosmic Web.
This thesis studies various aspects of non-critical strings both as an example of a non-trivial and solvable model of quantum gravity and as a consistent approximation to the confining flux tube in quantum chromodynamics (QCD).
This book on high-energy cosmic rays deals in its first part with the standard model of cosmic rays, describing how they are born in a wide range of cosmic processes, how they are accelerated and how they interact with matter, magnetic fields and radiation during their journey across the Galaxy.
This book presents experimental work conducted on the International Space Station (ISS) in order to characterize metals and alloys in the liquid state.
This third edition of Malcolm Longair's highly acclaimed textbook is an up-to-date text on astrophysical cosmology expounding the structure of classical cosmological models from a contemporary viewpoint.
This book serves as a textbook for senior undergraduate students who are learning the subject of general relativity and gravitational waves for the first time.
This book presents the most common types of instabilities arising in classical field theories, namely tachyonic, Laplacian, ghost-like or strong coupling instabilities, also commenting on their quantum implications.
Rafelski presents Special Relativity in a language deemed accessible to students without any topical preparation - avoiding the burden of geometry, tensor calculus, and space-time symmetries - and yet advancing in highly contemporary context all the way to research frontiers.
Presents a detailed analysis of modified theories of gravity, discussing their development, cosmological and astrophysical implications and outstanding challenges.
Tobias Schüttler stellt in diesem essential beide im Detail sehr anspruchsvollen Gebiete – Einsteins berühmte Relativitätstheorie und die Satellitenortung mit GPS und Galileo – in allgemein verständlicher Weise dar und erklärt die Einflüsse der Relativitätstheorie bei der Satellitennavigation ohne höhere Mathematik.
Dieses essential vermittelt auf eingängige Weise, worum es bei Albert Einsteins Relativitätstheorie geht und weshalb sie von so großer Bedeutung für die Wissenschaft und den Alltag ist.

In the first two books in his wildly popular The Theoretical Minimum series, world-class physicist Leonard Susskind provided a brilliant first course in classical and quantum mechanics, offering readers not an oversimplified introduction, but the real thing - everything you need to start doing physics, and nothing more.

This book is an attempt to bring the full range of relativity theory within reach of advanced undergraduates, while containing enough new material and simplifications of old arguments so as not to bore the expert teacher.
After the huge national and international success of 'Longitude' and 'Gallileo's Daughter', Dava Sobel tells the human story of the nine planets of our solar system.
Dieses essential vermittelt auf eingängige Weise, worum es bei Albert Einsteins Allgemeiner Relativitätstheorie geht und weshalb sie von so großer Bedeutung für die Wissenschaft und den Alltag ist.
