8,507円 In most undergraduate physics classes Special Relativity is taught from a simplistic point of view using Newtonian concepts rather than the relativistic way of thinking. This results in students often finding it difficult to understand properly the new approach/new ideas, and consequently to solv...

1,183円 Mainstream physics currently contends that only 4% of our Universe is made of normal matter and energy. The remaining 96% is thought to be mysterious dark matter and dark energy that are not at all understood. This presents a quandary relative to Einstein’s observation: “The most incomprehensible...

1,583円 In questa breve opera, cercheremo di esplorare i concetti di spazio e di tempo, navigando tra fisica e filosofia, richiamando e confrontando a livello generale, alcune delle più importanti teorie, alla ricerca di possibili connessioni e intuizioni. Infine viene presentata, evidenziandone principa...

8,740円 The text covers the entire domain of basic classical mechanics and relativity theory (special and general) and has been revised mainly for the purpose of adding exercises without worked solutions that were missing in the first edition. To retain the format of a readable, yet advanced introductory...

20,662円 This book is a collection of contributions presented at the 16th annual international symposium “Frontiers of Fundamental Physics” (FFP16), supported by Istanbul University. As a document of the latest occurrence of this very important gathering, it presents the most recent advances in fundamenta...

2,960円 "Truly excellent . . . sophisticated . . . will probably be read by every student of relativity, astrophysics, and field theory for years to come." ーJames W. York, Physics Today "Wald's book is clearly the first textbook on general relativity with a totally modern point of view; and it succeeds...

2,320円 "One of the few books that treats the foundations of the theory of relativity seriously and in elaborate detail, at the non-specialist level." ー Nature From A to B may not seem a great distance to travel, but, as Robert Geroch demonstrates in his conversational style, our perception of distance ...

4,214円 The concepts of dark matter and the cosmic web are some of the most significant developments in cosmology in the past century. They have decisively changed the classical cosmological paradigm, which was first elaborated upon during the first half of the 20th century but ran into serious problems ...
