Condition: Very Good. : Este libro, 'General Relativity: An Introduction for Physicists', ofrece una introducción matemática clara a la teoría de la relatividad general de Einstein. Presenta una amplia gama de aplicaciones de la teoría, concentrándose en sus consecuencias físicas. Tras revisar los conceptos básicos, los autores presentan una discusión clara e intuitiva de los antecedentes matemáticos, incluyendo las herramientas necesarias del cálculo tensorial y la geometría diferencial. Estas herramientas se utilizan para desarrollar el tema de la relatividad especial y para discutir el electromagnetismo en el espacio-tiempo de Minkowski. A continuación, se introduce la gravitación como curvatura del espacio-tiempo y se derivan las ecuaciones de campo de la relatividad general. Tras aplicar la teoría a una amplia gama de situaciones físicas, el libro concluye con una breve discusión de la teoría clásica de campos y la derivación de la relatividad general a partir de un principio variacional. Escrito para estudiantes avanzados de pregrado y posgrado, este libro de texto accesible contiene más de 300 ejercicios para iluminar y ampliar la discusión en el texto.

Hardback. Condition: New. Illustrated. General Relativity: An Introduction for Physicists provides a clear mathematical introduction to Einstein's theory of general relativity. It presents a wide range of applications of the theory, concentrating on its physical consequences. After reviewing the basic concepts, the authors present a clear and intuitive discussion of the mathematical background, including the necessary tools of tensor calculus and differential geometry. These tools are then used to develop the topic of special relativity and to discuss electromagnetism in Minkowski spacetime. Gravitation as spacetime curvature is then introduced and the field equations of general relativity derived. After applying the theory to a wide range of physical situations, the book concludes with a brief discussion of classical field theory and the derivation of general relativity from a variational principle. Written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this approachable textbook contains over 300 exercises to illuminate and extend the discussion in the text.…
