  • The Shadow of Black Holes

    An Analytic Description

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book introduces an analytic method to describe the shadow of black holes. As an introduction, it presents a survey of the attempts to observe the shadow of galactic black holes. Based on a detailed discussion of the Plebański–Demiański class of space-times, the book derives analytical formulas for the photon regions and for the boundary curve of the shadow as seen by an observer in the domain ...

  • Introducing Stephen Hawking

    A Graphic Guide

    de J.P. McEvoy ...
    Series series Graphic Guides
    'An ideal introduction [to Stephen Hawking]' - Independent'Astonishingly comprehensive - clearer than Hawking himself' - FocusStephen Hawking was a world-famous physicist with a cameo in The Simpsons on his CV, but outside of his academic field his work was little understood. To the public he was a tragic figure - a brilliant scientist and author of the 9 million-copy-selling A Brief History of ... Leer más

  • Extra Dimensions in Space and Time

    Series 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 ... Leer más

  • A Student's Guide to Einstein's Major Papers

    Our understanding of the physical universe underwent a revolution in the early twentieth century - evolving from the classical physics of Newton, Galileo, and Maxwell to the modern physics of relativity and quantum mechanics. The dominant figure in this revolutionary change was Albert Einstein. In a single year, 1905, Einstein produced breakthrough works in three areas of physics: on the size and ... Leer más

  • Special Relativity in General Frames

    From Particles to Astrophysics

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Special relativity is the basis of many fields in modern physics: particle physics, quantum field theory, high-energy astrophysics, etc. This theory is presented here by adopting a four-dimensional point of view from the start. An outstanding feature of the book is that it doesn’t restrict itself to inertial frames but considers accelerated and rotating observers. It is thus possible to treat ... Leer más

  • The Three-body Problem from Pythagoras to Hawking

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book, written for a general readership, reviews and explains the three-body problem in historical context reaching to latest developments in computational physics and gravitation theory. The three-body problem is one of the oldest problems in science and it is most relevant even in today’s physics and astronomy.The long history of the problem from Pythagoras to Hawking parallels the evolution ...

  • Hyperbolic Triangle Centers

    The Special Relativistic Approach

    de A.A. Ungar ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    After A. Ungar had introduced vector algebra and Cartesian coordinates into hyperbolic geometry in his earlier books, along with novel applications in Einstein’s special theory of relativity, the purpose of his new book is to introduce hyperbolic barycentric coordinates, another important concept to embed Euclidean geometry into hyperbolic geometry. It will be demonstrated that, in full analogy to ... Leer más

  • Einstein's Theory

    A Rigorous Introduction for the Mathematically Untrained

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book provides an introduction to the theory of relativity and the mathematics used in its processes. Three elements of the book make it stand apart from previously published books on the theory of relativity.First, the book starts at a lower mathematical level than standard books with tensor calculus of sufficient maturity to make it possible to give detailed calculations of relativistic ...

  • The Three-Body Problem and the Equations of Dynamics

    Poincaré’s Foundational Work on Dynamical Systems Theory

    Traducido por Bruce D Popp ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Here is an accurate and readable translation of a seminal article by Henri Poincaré that is a classic in the study of dynamical systems popularly called chaos theory. In an effort to understand the stability of orbits in the solar system, Poincaré applied a Hamiltonian formulation to the equations of planetary motion and studied these differential equations in the limited case of three bodies to ...
