Problem Book in Relativity and Gravitation by Alan P. Lightman & R.H. Price
Provides a collection of some 475 problems, with solutions in the fields of special and general relativity, gravitation, relativistic astrophysics, and cosmology.Important and useful to every student of relativity, this book is a unique collection of some 475 problems - with solutions - in the fields of special and general relativity, gravitation, relativistic astrophysics, and cosmology. The problems are expressed in broad physical terms to enhance their pertinence to readers with diverse backgrounds. In their solutions, the authors have attempted to convey a mode of approach to these kinds of problems, revealing procedures that can reduce the labor of calculations while avoiding the pitfall of too much or too powerful formalism. Although well suited for individual use, the volume may also be used with one of the modem textbooks in general relativity. |
