Galilean and Special Relativity: 1. Classical special relativity; 2. Quantum mechanics, classical, and special relativity; 3. Microscopic formulations of particle interactions; 4. Group theory in quantum mechanics -- Part II. General Relativity: 5. Fundamentals of general relativity; 6. Quantum mechanics in curved space-time backgrounds; 7. The physics of horizons and trapping regions; 8. Cosmology; 9. Gravitation of interacting systems.Exploring how the subtleties of quantum coherence can be consistently incorporated into Einstein's theory of gravitation, this book is ideal for researchers interested in the foundations of relativity and quantum physics. The book examines those properties of coherent gravitating systems that are most closely connected to experimental observations. Examples of consistent co-gravitating quantum systems whose overall effects upon the geometry are independent of the coherence state of each constituent are provided, and the properties of the trapping regions of non-singular black objects, black holes and a dynamic de Sitter cosmology are discussed analytically, numerically and diagrammatically. The extensive use of diagrams to summarise the results of the mathematics enables readers to bypass the need for a detailed understanding of the steps involved. Assuming some knowledge of quantum physics and relativity, the book provides text boxes featuring supplementary information for readers particularly interested in the philosophy and foundations of the physics.Quantum gravityQuantum gravity.531/.41Lindesay James786076UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910464959503321Foundations of quantum gravity2458846UNINA02457nam 22006732 450 991078964380332120160421155314.00-7486-5265-51-283-25273-297866132527390-7486-4376-110.1515/9780748643769(CKB)2670000000113878(EBL)767119(OCoLC)749264641(SSID)ssj0000534285(PQKBManifestationID)11331200(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000534285(PQKBWorkID)10511271(PQKB)10908980(UkCbUP)CR9780748643769(StDuBDS)EDZ0000055560(MiAaPQ)EBC767119(Au-PeEL)EBL767119(CaPaEBR)ebr10496767(CaONFJC)MIL325273(DE-B1597)614389(DE-B1597)9780748643769(OCoLC)1302164507(EXLCZ)99267000000011387820120514d2011|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBadiou and Plato an education by truths /A.J.
