Gravitational Waves: An Overview: Synthesis Lectures on Wave Phenomena in the Physical Sciences
Autor David M. Feldbaumen Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 aug 2020
This book delves into the exploration of the basics of the theory of GW, their generation, propagation, and detection by various methods. It does not delve into the depths of Einstein's General Relativity, but instead discusses successively closer approximations to the full theory. As a result, the book should be accessible to an ambitious undergraduate student majoring in physics or engineering. It could be read concurrently with standard junior-level textbooks in classical mechanics, and electromagnetic theory.

Notă biografică
David M. Feldbaum received his Ph.D. in experimental physics from the University of Michigan in 2003, working with trapped atoms. As a postdoctoral researcher, he spent several years at Los Alamos National Laboratory working on trapping radioactive atoms, before joining the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory in Louisiana as a part of the University of Florida research group. He joined the faculty of the Southeastern Louisiana University in 2014.
