The interaction between geometry and theoretical physics has often been very fruitful. A highlight in this century was Einstein's creation of the theory of general relativity. Equally impressive was the recognition, starting from the work of Yang and Mills and culminating in the Weinberg-Salam theory of the electroweak interaction and quantum chromodynamics, that the fundamental interactions of elementary particles are governed by gauge fields, which in ma thematical terms are connections in principal fibre bundles. Theoretical physi cists became increasingly aware of the fact that the use of modern mathematical methods may be necessary in the treatment of problems of physical interest. Sinc...
A meeting was held at the Physics Centre in Bad Honnef from Feb. 16-20, 1987 on the subject "The Fundamental Interaction: Geometrical Trends". This meeting was in the series of Physics Schools organized by the German Physical Society. The participants were mainly younger scientists and graduate students: physicists, mathematicians and astronomers from the Federal Republic of Germany; there were also participants from Austria, the Netherlands and Switzerland. The purpose of the meeting was to introduce the participants to modern methods of mathematics and field theory which are increasingly being used in current elementary particle research. An outstanding feature of the school was the fact t...
The supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way is the nearest such object and relatively easy to observe and study. Not surprisingly therefore, it is the best studied supermassive black hole. Many astrophysical and even general relativistic effects can be investigated in great detail. The Galactic Black Hole: Lectures on General Relativity and Astrophysics provides a systematic introduction to the physics/astrophysics and mathematics of black holes at a level suitable for graduate students, postdocs, and researchers in physics, astrophysics, astronomy, and applied mathematics. The focus is mainly on the supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way but the results can be easily generalized taking it as an example. Leading international experts provide first-hand accounts of the observational and theoretical aspects of this black hole. Topics range from the properties of the Schwarzschild metric and the collapse of a black hole, to quantum gravity, and from the structure of the Galaxy to accretion of matter and the emission properties of the Galactic Center black hole.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird versucht, aus verschieden artigen, durch hochenergetische Photonen an Kernen induzierten Reaktionen, AufschluB Uber die Absorptionsmechanismen von Photonen und die anschlieBenden Kernumwandlungen zu bekommen. Aus den Reaktionsprodukten der Photospaltung, der Spallation und aus den Energiespektren von Protonen, Tritonen, 3He- und 4He-Teilchen sollen RUckschlUsse auf den Umwandlungsmechanis mus der in den Kern eingebrachten Energie gezogen werden. Die hier untersuchten Reaktionen wurden mit Bremsstrahlung von 0. 45 - 2. 2 GeV Endenergie induziert und verglichen mit den Ergebnissen bei teilcheninduzierten Reaktionen, die anderen orts mit ahnlicher Zielsetzung ver...
