The Special Theory of Relativity: A Mathematical Approach de Farook Rahaman

The Special Theory of Relativity: A Mathematical Approach: UNITEXT, cartea 136

Autor Farook Rahaman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 apr 2022
This textbook expounds the major topics in the special theory of relativity. It provides a detailed examination of the mathematical foundation of the special theory of relativity, relativistic mass, relativistic mechanics, and relativistic electrodynamics. As well as covariant formulation of relativistic mechanics and electrodynamics, the text discusses the relativistic effect on photons. A new chapter on electromagnetic waves as well as several new problems and examples have been included in the second edition of the book. Using the mathematical approach, the text offers graduate students a clear, concise view of the special theory of relativity. Organized into 15 chapters and two appendices, the content is presented in a logical order, and every topic has been dealt with in a simple and lucid manner. To aid understanding of the subject, the text provides numerous relevant worked-out examples in every chapter. The mathematical approach of the text helps students in theirindependent study and motivates them to research the topic further.

Recenzii

“This book offers a valuable exposition of the main topics in the special theory of relativity. … The book is concise but clear and well written. It provides a number of interesting examples … and worked exercises in every chapter, helping the reader to understand the topic at hand. … The book would be appropriate as an introductory text on special relativity for graduate students.” (Francesco Sorge, Mathematical Reviews, June, 2015)
“The book is a self-contained and well planned text book for graduate students. It covers the special theory of relativity for mathematics and physics students. The main goal of the book is a clear and successful presentation of the basic ideas of relativity. The reader can see an attention of the author to help students in understanding and further developing of the basic notions of the subject.” (P. K. Sahoo, zbMATH 1316.83018, 2015)
