The target audience are physicists, engineers and applied scientists who are looking for an understandable introduction to the topic - without too much new mathematics. The fundamental equations of Einsteins theory of Special and General Relativity are derived using matrix calculus, without the help of tensors. This feature makes the book special and a valuable tool for scientists and engineers with no experience in the field of tensor calculus. In part I the foundations of Special Relativity are developed, part II describes the structure and principle of General Relativity. Part III explains the Schwarzschild solution of spherical body gravity and examines the "Black Hole" phenomenon. Any necessary mathematical tools are user friendly provided, either directly in the text or in the appendices.Graduate Texts in Physics,1868-4513GravitationMechanicsMechanics, AppliedChemistry, Physical and theoreticalMathematical physicsClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Theoretical and Applied Mechanicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T15001Theoretical and Computational Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C25007Classical Mechanicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21018Mathematical Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M35000Gravitation.Mechanics.Mechanics, Applied.Chemistry, Physical and theoretical.Mathematical physics.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.Theoretical and Applied Mechanics.Theoretical and Computational Chemistry.Classical Mechanics.Mathematical Physics.530.11Ludyk Günterauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut884394MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437978503321Einstein in Matrix Form1974911UNINA
