The Search for Non-Newtonian Gravity
ISBN: 9780387984902 / Angielski / Twarda / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Newton's inverse-square law of gravitation has been one of the cornerstones of physics ever since it was proposed 300 years ago. One of its most well known features is the prediction that all objects fall in a gravitational field with the same acceleration. This observation, in the form of the Equivalence Principle, is a fundamental assumption of Einstein's General Relativity Theory. This book traces the history of attempts to test the predictions of Newtonian Gravity, and describes in detail recent experimental efforts to verify both the inverse-square law and the Equivalence Principle....

Space, Time, and Spacetime: Physical and Philosophical Implications of Minkowski's Unification of Space and Time
ISBN: 9783642135378 / Angielski / Twarda / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1908 Hermann Minkowski gave the four-dimensional(spacetime) formulationof special relativity 1]. In fact, HenriPoincare 2] rst noticedin1906that the Lorentz transformations had a geometric interpretation as rotations in a four-dimensional space with time as the fourth dimension. However it was Minkowski, who succe- fully decoded the profound message about the dimensionality of the world hidden in the relativity postulate, which re ects the experimental fact that natural laws are the same in all inertial reference frames. Unlike Poincare, Minkowski did not regardspacetime the uni cation of...

Gravitation as a Plastic Distortion of the Lorentz Vacuum
ISBN: 9783642135880 / Angielski / Twarda / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Addressing graduate students and researchers in theoretical physics and mathematics, this book presents a new formulation of the theory of gravity. In the new approach the gravitational field has the same ontology as the electromagnetic, strong, and weak fields. In other words it is a physical field living in Minkowski spacetime. Some necessary new mathematical concepts are introduced and carefully explained. Then they are used to describe the deformation of geometries, the key to describing the gravitational field as a plastic deformation of the Lorentz vacuum. It emerges after further...

The Arrows of Time: A Debate in Cosmology
ISBN: 9783642232589 / Angielski / Twarda / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The concept of time has fascinated humanity throughout recorded history, and it remains one of the biggest mysteries in science and philosophy. Time is clearly one of the fundamental building blocks of the universe and thus a deeper understanding of nature at a fundamental level also demands a comprehension of time. Furthermore, the origins of the universe are closely intertwined with the puzzle of time: Did time emerge at the Big Bang? Why does the arrow of time conspire with the order of the initial state of the universe? This book addressesmany ofthe most important questions...

Relativity and Engineering
ISBN: 9783642692000 / Angielski / Miękka / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The main feature of this book is the emphasis on "practice." This approach, unusual in the relativistic literature, may be clarified by quoting some problems discussed in the text: - the analysis of rocket acceleration to relativistic velocities - the influence of gravitational fields on the accuracy of time measurements - the operation of optical rotation sensors - the evaluation of the Doppler spectrum produced by the linear (or ro- tional) motion of an antenna or scatterer - the use of the Cerenkov effect in the design of millimeter-wave power generators - the influence of the motion of a...

Asymptotic Safety and Black Holes
ISBN: 9783319012933 / Angielski / Twarda / 185 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the open challenges in fundamental physics is to combine Einstein's theory of general relativity with the principles of quantum mechancis. In this thesis, the question is raised whether metric quantum gravity could be fundamental in the spirit of Steven Weinberg's seminal asymptotic safety conjecture, and if so, what are the consequences for the physics of small, possibly Planck-size black holes? To address the first question, new techniques are provided which allow, for the first time, a self-consistent study of high-order polynomial actions including up to 34 powers in the Ricci...

The Search for Non-Newtonian Gravity
ISBN: 9781461271444 / Angielski / Miękka / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A history of the attempts to test the predictions of Newtonian Gravity, describing in detail recent experimental efforts to verify both the inverse-square law and the Equivalence Principle. Interest in these questions has increased in recent years, as it has become recognised that deviations from Newtonian gravity could be a signal for a new fundamental force in nature. This is the first book devoted entirely to this subject, and will thus be useful to both graduate students and researchers interested in this field. It describes the ideas that underlie searches for such deviations, focusing...

Generalized Perturbations in Modified Gravity and Dark Energy
ISBN: 9783319012094 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When predictions of Einstein's theory of General Relativity are compared against observations of our Universe, a huge inconsistency is found. The most popular fix for this inconsistency is to "invent" around 94% of the content of the universe: dark matter and dark energy. The dark energy is some exotic substance responsible for the apparent observed acceleration of the Universe. Another fix is to modify the theory of gravity: it is entirely plausible that Einstein's theory of General Relativity breaks down on cosmological scales, just as Newton's theory of gravity breaks down in the extreme...

Advanced Interferometers and the Search for Gravitational Waves: Lectures from the First Vesf School on Advanced Detectors for Gravitational Waves
ISBN: 9783319037912 / Angielski / Twarda / 387 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The search for gravitational radiation with optical interferometers is gaining momentum worldwide. Beside the VIRGO and GEO gravitational wave observatories in Europe and the two LIGOs in the United States, which have operated successfully during the past decade, further observatories are being completed (KAGRA in Japan) or planned (ILIGO in India). The sensitivity of the current observatories, although spectacular, has not allowed direct discovery of gravitational waves. The advanced detectors (Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo) at present in the development phase will improve sensitivity by...

Space-Time Foliation in Quantum Gravity
ISBN: 9784431549468 / Angielski / Twarda / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this thesis, the author considers quantum gravity to investigate the mysterious origin of our universe and its mechanisms. He and his collaborators have greatly improved the analyticity of two models: causal dynamical triangulations (CDT) and n-DBI gravity, with the space-time foliation which is one common factor shared by these two separate models. In the first part, the analytic method of coupling matters to CDT in 2-dimensional toy models is proposed to uncover the underlying mechanisms of the universe and to remove ambiguities remaining in CDT. As a result, the wave... In this thesis, the author considers quantum gravity to investigate the mysterious origin of our universe and its mechanisms. He and his collaborat... |
