Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wald's book is clearly the first textbook on general relativity with a totally modern point of view; and it succeeds very well where others are only partially successful. The book includes full discussions of many problems of current interest which are not treated in any extant book, and all these matters are considered with perception and understanding."—S. Chandrasekhar "A tour de force: lucid, straightforward, mathematically rigorous, exacting in the analysis of the theory in its physical aspect."—L. P. Hughston, Times Higher Education Supplement "Truly excellent. . . . A sophisticated text of manageable size that will probably be read by every student of relativity, astrophysics, and field theory for years to come."—James W. York, Physics Today
Download or read book Mathematical Methods In Electromagnetism Linear Theory And Applications written by Michel Cessenat and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996-07-13 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the reader with basic tools to solve problems of electromagnetism in their natural functional frameworks thanks to modern mathematical methods: integral surface methods, and also semigroups, variational methods, etc., well adapted to a numerical approach.As examples of applications of these tools and concepts, we solve several fundamental problems of electromagnetism, stationary or time-dependent: scattering of an incident wave by an obstacle, bounded or not, by gratings; wave propagation in a waveguide, with junctions and cascades. We hope that mathematical notions will allow a better understanding of modelization in electromagnetism and emphasize the essential features related to the geometry and nature of materials.
Download or read book Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime written by Leonard Parker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-08-20 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum field theory in curved spacetime has been remarkably fruitful. It can be used to explain how the large-scale structure of the universe and the anisotropies of the cosmic background radiation that we observe today first arose. Similarly, it provides a deep connection between general relativity, thermodynamics, and quantum field theory. This book develops quantum field theory in curved spacetime in a pedagogical style, suitable for graduate students. The authors present detailed, physically motivated, derivations of cosmological and black hole processes in which curved spacetime plays a key role. They explain how such processes in the rapidly expanding early universe leave observable consequences today, and how in the context of evaporating black holes, these processes uncover deep connections between gravitation and elementary particles. The authors also lucidly describe many other aspects of free and interacting quantized fields in curved spacetime.

Download or read book From Special Relativity to Feynman Diagrams written by Riccardo D'Auria and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-28 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first two chapters of the book deal, in a detailed way, with relativistic kinematics and dynamics, while in the third chapter some elementary concepts of General Relativity are given. Eventually, after an introduction to tensor calculus, a Lorentz covariant formulation of electromagnetism is given its quantization is developed. For a proper treatment of invariance and conservation laws in physics, an introductory chapter on group theory is given. This introduction is propedeutical to the discussion of conservation laws in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalism, which will allow us to export this formalism to quantum mechanics and, in particular, to introduce linear operators on quantum states and their transformation laws. In the last part of the book we analyze, in the first quantized formalism, relativistic field theory for both boson and fermion fields. The second quantization of free fields is then introduced and some preliminary concepts of perturbation theory and Feynmann diagrams are given and some relevant examples are worked out.

Download or read book General Relativistic Effects and Elliptic Functions written by F.T. Hioe and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-19 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of articles highlights all possible trajectories of particles and light under the influence of a gravitational field of all possible strengths that may exist in our universe, including that of a black hole; and it also highlights the beautiful mathematical formulas that can express all these trajectories, according to Einstein’s theory of general relativity. For this to be possible, the authors use mathematical functions called elliptic functions that can describe orbits, including the familiar circular, elliptical, parabolic and hyperbolic orbits. Some readers can put aside technical terms such as “Schwarzschild metric” which simply specifies a certain condition that excludes cases such as a spinning black hole, and “Parameter Space” which simply specifies all possible energy, momentum of an object or light and the character of the massive body (black hole included), and go directly to see the mathematical expressions that describe the trajectories, and the relevant graphs.

Download or read book Quantum Mechanics written by Thomas Banks and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative, advanced introduction provides a complete, modern perspective on quantum mechanics. It clarifies many common misconceptions regarding wave/particle duality and the correct interpretation of measurements. The author develops the text from the ground up, starting from the fundamentals and presenting information at an elementary level, avoiding unnecessarily detailed and complex derivations in favor of simple, clear explanations. He begins in the simplest context of a two-state system and shows why quantum mechanics is inevitable, and what its relationship is to classical mechanics. He also outlines the decoherence approach to interpreting quantum mechanics. Distinguishing features: Provides a thorough grounding in the principles and practice of quantum mechanics, including a core understanding of the behavior of atoms, molecules, solids, and light. Utilizes easy-to-follow examples and analogies to illustrate important concepts. Helps develop an intuitive sense for the field, by guiding the reader to understand how the correct formulas reduce to the non-relativistic ones. Includes numerous worked examples and problems for each chapter.
