Download or read book Strings, Branes and Gravity written by Jeffrey Harvey and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 972 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the topics in this book are outgrowths of the spectacular new understanding of duality in string theory which emerged around 1995. They include the AdS/CFT correspondence and its relation to holography, the matrix theory formulation of M theory, the structure of black holes in string theory, the structure of D-branes and M-branes, and detailed development of dualities with N = 1 and N = 2 supersymmetry. In addition, there are lectures covering experimental and phenomenological aspects of the Standard Model and its extensions, and discussions on cosmology including both theoretical aspects and the exciting new experimental evidence for a non-zero cosmological constant.

Book Synopsis Brane-localized Gravity by : Philip David Mannheim
Download or read book Brane-localized Gravity written by Philip David Mannheim and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2005-10-19 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely and valuable book provides a detailed pedagogical introduction and treatment of the brane-localized gravity program of Randall and Sundrum, in which gravitational signals are able to localize around our four-dimensional world in the event that it is a brane embedded in an infinitely-sized, higher dimensional anti-de Sitter bulk space. A completely self-contained development of the material needed for brane-world studies is provided for both students and workers in the field, with a significant amount of the material being previously unpublished. Particular attention is given to issues not ordinarily treated in the brane-world literature, such as the completeness of tensor gravitational fluctuation modes, the causality of brane-world propagators, and the status of the massless graviton fluctuation mode in brane worlds in which it is not normalizable.
Download or read book Branes of Gravity written by H.C. Huang and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-01-07 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Branes of Gravity: The Structure of Gravitational Force, a new title by H. C. Huang, builds on the author’s earlier volume, A Simple Unified Theory: From Magnetism to Gravity. The author disagrees with some of the current beliefs in theoretical physics. For example, it is commonly believed that a perpetual machine is impossible. But this author thinks that our entire universe, galaxies, solar systems, and atoms are all, in effect, perpetual machines, whose motion still energizes everything we can sense. Based on the synthesis of discoveries in this book and the previous volume—covering such topics as how gravity and inertia differ, the Moon-Earth relationship, and applications of the neutral charge field—Huang discusses their implications for re-evaluating the structure and future understanding of physical nature and phenomena of particle universes.

Book Synopsis Physics of Black Holes by : Eleftherios Papantonopoulos
Download or read book Physics of Black Holes written by Eleftherios Papantonopoulos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-01-28 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Holes are still considered to be among the most mysterious and fascinating objects in our universe. Awaiting the era of gravitational astronomy, much progress in theoretical modeling and understanding of classical and quantum black holes has already been achieved. The present volume serves as a tutorial, high-level guided tour through the black-hole landscape: information paradox and blackhole thermodynamics, numerical simulations of black-hole formation and collisions, braneworld scenarios and stability of black holes with respect to perturbations are treated in great detail, as is their possible occurrence at the LHC. An outgrowth of a topical and tutorial summer school, this extensive set of carefully edited notes has been set up with the aim of constituting an advanced-level, multi-authored textbook which meets the needs of both postgraduate students and young researchers in the fields of modern cosmology, astrophysics and (quantum) field theory.
Download or read book Warped Passages written by Lisa Randall and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The universe has many secrets. It may hide additional dimensions of space other than the familier three we recognize. There might even be another universe adjacent to ours, invisible and unattainable . . . for now. Warped Passages is a brilliantly readable and altogether exhilarating journey that tracks the arc of discovery from early twentieth-century physics to the razor's edge of modern scientific theory. One of the world's leading theoretical physicists, Lisa Randall provides astonishing scientific possibilities that, until recently, were restricted to the realm of science fiction. Unraveling the twisted threads of the most current debates on relativity, quantum mechanics, and gravity, she explores some of the most fundamental questions posed by Nature—taking us into the warped, hidden dimensions underpinning the universe we live in, demystifying the science of the myriad worlds that may exist just beyond our own.

Book Synopsis Towards Quantum Gravity by : Jerzy Kowalski-Glikman
Download or read book Towards Quantum Gravity written by Jerzy Kowalski-Glikman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2000-01-24 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to give graduate students an overview of quantum gravity but it also covers related topics from astrophysics. Some well-written contributions can serve as an introduction into basic conceptual concepts like time in quantum gravity or the emergence of a classical world from quantum cosmology. This makes the volume attractive to philosophers of science, too. Other topics are black holes, gravitational waves and non-commutative extensions of physical theories.

Book Synopsis Einstein's Monsters: The Life and Times of Black Holes by : Chris Impey

This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[A] skillfully told history of the quest to find black holes.” —Manjit Kumar, Financial Times Black holes are the best-known and least-understood objects in the universe. In Einstein’s Monsters, distinguished astronomer Chris Impey takes readers on a vivid tour of these enigmatic giants. He weaves a fascinating tale out of the fiendishly complex math of black holes and the colorful history of their discovery. Impey blends this history with a poignant account of the phenomena scientists have witnessed while observing black holes: stars swarming like bees around the center of our galaxy; black holes performing gravitational waltzes with visible stars; the cymbal clash of two black holes colliding, releasing ripples in space time. Clear, compelling, and profound, Einstein’s Monsters reveals how our comprehension of black holes is intrinsically linked to how we make sense of the universe and our place within it.

Book Synopsis Teleparallel Gravity by : Ruben Aldrovandi
Download or read book Teleparallel Gravity written by Ruben Aldrovandi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teleparallel Gravity (TG) is an alternative theory for gravitation, which is equivalent to General Relativity (GR). However, it is conceptually different. For example in GR geometry replaces the concept of force, and the trajectories are determined by geodesics. TG attributes gravitation to torsion, which accounts for gravitation by acting as a force. TG has already solved some old problems of gravitation (like the energy-momentum density of the gravitational field). The interest in TG has grown in the last few years. The book here proposed will be the first one dedicated exclusively to TG, and will include the foundations of the theory, as well as applications to specific problems to illustrate how the theory works.
