19,450円 The search for a quantum theory of the gravitational field is one of the great open problems in theoretical physics. This book presents a self-contained discussion of the concepts, methods and applications that can be expected in such a theory. The two main approaches to its construction -- the d...

15,615円 The origin and evolution of the primordial perturbation is the key to understanding structure formation in the earliest stages of the Universe. It carries clues to the types of physical phenomena active in that extreme high-density environment. Through its evolution, generating first the observed...

14,941円 Covering all aspects of gravitation in a contemporary style, this advanced textbook is ideal for graduate students and researchers in all areas of theoretical physics. The 'Foundation' section develops the formalism in six chapters, and uses it in the next four chapters to discuss four key applic...

1,730円 There are two scientific theories that, taken together, explain the entire universe. The first, which describes the force of gravity, is widely known: Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. But the theory that explains everything elseーthe Standard Model of Elementary Particlesーis virtually un...

503円 The Theory of the Relativity of Motion In the field of physical science, there was a widespread feeling that the days of adventurous discovery had passed forever, and the conservative physicist was only too happy to devote his life to the measurement to the sixth decimal place of quantities wh...

4,374円 The world would be a very different place if it were not for Albert Einstein. Like Newton and Galileo before him, this remarkable scientist changed forever mankind's understanding of the universe. In 1921, five years after proclaiming his general theory of relativity, Einstein was awarded the Nob...

15,159円 The standard starting point in cosmology is the cosmological principle; the assumption that the universe is spatially homogeneous and isotropic. After imposing this assumption, the only freedom left, as far as the geometry is concerned, is the choice of one out of three permissible spatial geomet...

2,500円 A causality based model meant to integrate all issues not resolved with Special Relativity and General Relativity by integrating a relativistic effect in nucleons not taken into account by either theories, and that reconciles Quantum Mechanics with causality. **** Electromagnetic Mechanics of par...

13,462円 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 c...

839円 All of modern astrophysics and cosmology stands on the foundation of General Relativity that is best expressed in tensors. This book, and its prequel General Relativity 3, present the clearest, most comprehensible, and most complete introduction to the tensor calculus of differential topology, w...

503円 This book tells the surprising story of Albert Einstein, what he discovered, and how those discoveries enrich our lives everyday. Einstein, the most famous scientist in history, was chosen by Time Magazine as “The Person of the Century.” Indeed, his name has become synonymous with the word “ge...

8,294円 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 do...
