Topics within relativity that fascinate astrophysics researchers and students alike are covered with Schutz's characteristic ease and authority, from black holes to relativistic objects, from pulsars to the study of the Universe as a whole. This third edition contains discoveries by astronomers that require general relativity for their explanation; two chapters on gravitational waves, including direct detections of gravitational waves and their observations' impact on cosmological measurements; new information on black holes and neutron stars; and greater insight into the expansion of the Universe. Over 300 exercises, many new to this edition, give students the confidence to work with general relativity and the necessary mathematics, while the informal writing style and worked examples make the subject matter easily accessible.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 253mmItem Length: 196mmItem Width: 28mmItem Weight: 1260gAuthor: Bernard SchutzGenre: Science Nature & MathRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
