With a rare blend of scientific insight and writing as graceful as the theories it so deftly explains, The Elegant Universe remains the unrivaled a...

This book provides a comprehensive description of advances in the study of general relativistic instability supernovae. These supernovae, if observ...

This book introduces physics concepts and principles at a conversant but non-technical level. It also explores technology, with particular focus on...

Primordial black holes (PBHs) were proposed more than 50 years ago as black holes possibly formed across a vast mass range in the early universe. T...

Die beiden Säulen der modernen Physik sind die Quantenmechanik zur Beschreibung der subatomaren Welt sowie die allgemeine Relativitätstheorie zum V...

General relativity is one of the most profound statements in science. It is a theory of gravity that allows us to model the large-scale structure o...

This textbook offers an introduction to statistical mechanics, special relativity, and quantum physics, developed from lecture notes for the Quantu...

This book offers an excellent introduction to General Relativity and Cosmology. It is designed to serve as a self-contained text for graduate and a...

This book offers an updated comprehensive review of the rapidly expanding field of GRMHD simulations. In Part I, it reviews the basic equations for...

Graduate students typically enter into courses on string theory having little to no familiarity with the mathematical background so crucial to the ...

Pulsars, since their discovery in 1967, have been regarded as natural laboratories for the study of matter under extreme physical conditions of den...

Physicists will tell you that four forces control the universe. Of these, gravity may the most obvious, but it is also the most mysterious. Newton ...

Orbital motions have always been used to test gravitational theories which, from time to time, have challenged the then-dominant paradigms. This bo...

This book aims to present the topic of nonlinear and chaotic dynamics in a manner that is useful and beneficial to students and young researchers f...

There is little doubt that Einstein's theory of relativity captures the imagination. Not only has it radically altered the way we view the universe...

The search for a theory of quantum gravity is one of the most important and fascinating problems in modern theoretical physics. While we do not hav...

This thesis presents a novel analysis of a photometric observational feature of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia), the most precise distance indicators a...

In diesem Buch wird die Suche nach extraterrestrischen Strukturen diskutiert, die möglicherweise künstlichen Ursprungs sind. Die Fahndung nach küns...
