Shock Wave Interactions in General Relativity
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2007; US$ 94.99Covers the initial value problem for Einstein's gravitational field equations with fluid sources and shock wave initial data. This monograph aims to prove a certain local existence theorem. It is useful for graduate students and researchers in mathematics and physics. more...
A Primer of Special Relativity
New Age International Pvt. Ltd., Publishers 2004; US$ 20.00A Primer of Special Relativity1 is an unusually lucid introduction to the subject specifically written for Indian students. It is intended to give the beginner a firm grounding for a more advanced course in relativity. An entire chapter is devoted to applications of the theory to elucidate a large number of topics the students (B.Sc. Physics) come... more...
Deformed Spacetime
Springer 2007; US$ 199.99This volume provides a detailed discussion of the mathematical aspects and the physical applications of a new geometrical structure of space-time, based on a generalization ("deformation") of the usual Minkowski space, as supposed to be endowed with a metric whose coefficients depend on the energy. Such a formalism (Deformed Special Relativity,... more...
General Relativistic Dynamics
World Scientific Publishing Company 2009; US$ 62.00This book brings Einstein's general relativity into action in new ways at scales ranging from the tiny Planck scale to the scale of immense galactic clusters. It presents the case that Einstein's theory of gravity can describe the observed dynamics of galaxies without invoking the unknown dark matter required in models based on... more...
Special Relativity and Motions Faster than Light
Wiley 2008; US$ 89.00While the theory of special relativity is often associated with the idea of traveling faster than light, this book shows that in all these cases subtle forces of nature conspire to prevent these motions being harnessed to send signals faster than the speed of light. The author tackles these topics both conceptually, with minimal or no mathematics,... more...
Rotating Fields in General Relativity
Cambridge University Press 1985; US$ 34.00The aim of this book is to introduce the reader to research work on a particular aspect of rotating fields in general relativity. more...
Directions in General Relativity, Volume 1
Cambridge University Press 1993; US$ 78.00Proceedings of the International Symposium on General Relativity, University of Maryland, March 1993. more...
Special Relativity
OUP Oxford 2005; US$ 16.99Special relativity provides the foundations of our knowledge of space and time. Without it, our understanding of the world, and its place in the universe, would be unthinkable. This book gives a concise, elementary, yet exceptionally modern, introduction to special relativity. It is a gentle yet serious 'first encounter', in that it conveys... more...
