Tensors, Relativity, and Cosmology, Second Edition, combines relativity, astrophysics, and cosmology in a single volume, providing a simplified introduction to each subject that is followed by detailed mathematical derivations. The book includes a section on general relativity that gives the case for a curved space-time, presents the mathematical background (tensor calculus, Riemannian geometry), discusses the Einstein equation and its solutions (including black holes and Penrose processes), and considers the energy-momentum tensor for various solutions. In addition, a section on relativistic astrophysics discusses stellar contraction and collapse, neutron stars and their equations of state,...

Introductory Statistical Thermodynamics is a text for an introductory one-semester course in statistical thermodynamics for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in physics and engineering. The book offers a high level of detail in derivations of all equations and results. This information is necessary for students to grasp difficult concepts in physics that are needed to move on to higher level courses. The text is elementary, self contained, and mathematically well-founded, containing a number of problems with detailed solutions to help students to grasp the more difficult theoretical concepts. - Beginning chapters place an emphasis on quantum mechanics - Includes problems with detailed solutions and a number of detailed theoretical derivations at the end of each chapter - Provides a high level of detail in derivations of all equations and results
Este libro expone la historia y las bases cientficas de la gravedad, la fuerza ms dbil que se conoce pero que fue capaz de formar galaxias, estrellas y planetas. Empieza este libro con la historia de los hombres y sus ideas adems de la historia de las estrellas, desde su nacimiento hasta su muerte. Sigue despus con la extraa curvatura del espacio-tiempo, la que est regida por las ecuaciones de Einstein; nuestro cdigo csmico. Y finalmente, se exhibe un trabajo de investigacin del autor, bajo la forma de un Atlas de Trayectorias de astros alrededor de los agujeros negros. Al concluir la lectura de este libro usted podr decir tambin que el encanto de la gravedad es su enigma. El enigma de la gravedad es su debilidad, su tremendo poder csmico, su origen y su lejana del sentido comn.
