Gravitation: From the Hubble Length to the Planck Length: Series in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation
Editat de I. Ciufolini, E. Coccia, V. Gorini, N. Vittorio, R. Peronen Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2004
Written by international experts, this reference presents up-to-date information on classical relativity, astrophysics, and theoretical and experimental particle physics. The introduction sets the scene and provides a context for the remaining chapters. Chapters cover an extensive array of topics, from refined experimental techniques in gravitational physics to cosmology and the quantum frontier. The book concludes with a discussion of the connection among particles, fields, strings, and branes.
This compilation shows how gravity plays a fundamental role in astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology by exploring domains from the microscopic, such as black holes, to superclusters of galaxies that form the large-scale texture of the present-day cosmos. Moreover, with its theoretical and experimental focus on the foundations of gravity, Gravitation proves to be an invaluable resource for current and future research.

Recenzii
"…the volume is an interesting collection of articles. The most valuable chapters are those containing the extensive discussions of the experimental tests of relativity. They capture the excitement and recent progress very well."

Descriere
Gravitation: From the Hubble Length to the Planck Length provides an overview of relativistic astrophysics, early universe physics, cosmology, and their interface with particle physics. Written by international experts, this reference presents up-to-date information on classical relativity, astrophysics, and theoretical and experimental particle physics. The introduction sets the scene and provides a context for the remaining chapters. Chapters cover an extensive array of topics, from refined experimental techniques in gravitational physics to cosmology and the quantum frontier. The book concludes with a discussion of the connection among particles, fields, strings, and branes.
