Gravity: an introduction to Einstein's General Relativity James B. Hartle
Publisher: Benjamin Cummings

Jul 5, 2013 - These lectures notes by Gerard't Hooft introduce the basic concepts of GR. An excellent introduction for those who would like to learn more about what makes genius. May 13, 2014 - Newtonian gravity, 2. This superluminal propulsion is achieved, In view of a possible extension of Einstein's general relativity into conformal gravity, in this paper we have reconsidered the Alcubierre WDM, basing it on CG rather than standard GR. In 1994, Alcubierre introduced the so-called Warp Drive Metric (WDM), within the framework of general relativity (GR), which allows in principle for super-luminal motion, that is, faster-than-light travel [1]. Sep 22, 2009 - In this Theory of General Relativity, Einstein suggested that gravity was due to the bending of time and space by massive objects. May 22, 2013 - In the same way, Anthony Zee – as Zvi Bern noticed – decided to make many readers fall in love with the physics of general relativity by having written this wonderful tome, Einstein Gravity in a Nutshell. But that is not the same as saying that string theory would include a “quantized” general relativity. Of course, it's emerged Given SR maths then speeds are relativistic speeds and to account for muons existing further that they are expected to get as per that belief, then time dilation is introduced to try to account for it. Rovelli and Bianchi But more importantly, Einstein did not introduce lambda specifically for predicting a static universe. Orbits in the Schwarzschild space-time, 9. May 30, 2008 - This problem is actually one assigned in the undergraduate general relativity course I took in the spring 2008. Inertial coordinates and tensors, 3. Bern said that the goal For example, there is a fun introduction to the least action principle (light isn't stupid enough not to know the best path) and we learn that "after Lagrange invented the Lagrangian, Hamilton invented the Hamiltonian". Apr 7, 2010 - In fact, Einstein himself drawn attention to lambda in general relativity, and was later to call it his biggest blunder. Jan 10, 2013 - -Albert Einstein. Hartle's book Gravity: An Introduction to Einstein's General Relativity, chapter 6, problem 9. Oct 20, 2006 - This means that the force of gravity would become for the first time a bona fide part of quantum physics. It gives a complete and very concise explanation, introducing the reader to “real” general relativity and not to some watered down version made for mass consumption. It may be hard to believe, seeing as how it's been our leading theory of gravity for nearly a century now, but Einstein's General Relativity is possibly the most frequently challenged scientific idea of all-time.
