This book contains recent and important results on the deep study of the universe through one of the fields observable that will have a great impact in the next 100 years on space-time research and the creation of future technologies. It will appeal to mathematicians, natural sc…
Einstein's theory of general relativity describes the gravitational field of a system of stars and predicts their paths by providing the 'equations of motion' of each star. Extracting these equations from his field equations is a highly technical procedure described in this book…
First treatment of Equations of Motion in General Relativity in book form in over 40 years Graduated presentation of highly technical material Links theory and observation Includes novel presentations of the relativistic motion of small black holes and choreographic configuratio…
