| 书目名称 | Understanding Relativity | | 副标题 | A Conceptual Journey | | 编辑 | Wouter Schmitz | | 视频video | | | 概述 | Uses no maths, yet provides a deep understanding of relativity, gravity, black holes, and gravitational waves.Includes more than 150 color illustrations to support the explanations.Includes latest sci | | 丛书名称 | The Frontiers Collection | | 图书封面 |  | | 描述 | .This book bridges the huge gap between popular science and mathematical treatments of Einstein‘s theories. It explains special and general relativity, gravity, black holes, and gravitational waves, also presenting current ideas about dark matter and dark energy. The explanations are entirely non-mathematical, using many color pictures and clear concepts. In this way, the reader is led to a much deeper understanding than any popular science book can provide. ..The author has written this book for everyone who wants to go beyond superficial descriptions of relativity‘s remarkable phenomena, but is not equipped to read the professional literature and complicated math behind the theory. By providing a complete description in terms of concepts and pictures, the book answers many questions about why the theory works as it does. For example, it explains why and how momentum and pressure are related to gravity; why and how mass causes spacetime to curve and how curvature tells objects how to move; it also reveals the origin of the ring seen around the first ever image of a black hole. Not least, the reader will learn in detail how gravitational waves are produced and measured..Since their | | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | | 关键词 | Relativity concepts; Relativity without maths; Gravity; speed of light; expanding universe; special relat | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-17219-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-17219-9Series ISSN 1612-3018 Series E-ISSN 2197-6619 | | issn_series | 1612-3018 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
