The text is formulated in such a way that the reader will be able to understand the essence intuitively, and new sections have been added on time machines, the twin paradoxes, and tensors. The first part of the book focuses on the essentials of special relativity. It explains the famous equivalence between mass and energy and tells why Einstein was able to use the theory of electrodynamics as a template for his "electrodynamics of moving bodies". General relativity is then addressed, mainly with the help of thought experiments. Reference is made to the previously introduced special relativity and the equivalence principle and, using many figures, it is explained how space-time is bending under gravity. The climax of the book is the Einstein equation of gravity, which describes the way in which matterbends space-time. The reader is shown how to obtain the famous Schwarzschild solution. Moreover, the book presents a numerically correct and yet intuitive explanation of the classic effects such as ligh | | 出版日期 | Textbook 2015Latest edition | | 关键词 | Einstein‘s Relativity Theory; Explaining Relativity; General relativity nonexpert book; General relativ | | 版次 | 2 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-17891-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-17890-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-17891-2Series ISSN 2192-4791 Series E-ISSN 2192-4805 | | issn_series | 2192-4791 | | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015 |
