The Entwurf TheoryGenerated by AI.This book provides a detailed exploration of general relativity, a theory developed by Albert Einstein to explain the geometric nature of gravity as it relates to space-time curvature. It covers fundamental principles, including Einstein's principle of equivalence, and discusses the application of field equations to phenomena such as planetary dynamics, black holes, and the universe's expansion. Key concepts such as space-time, manifolds, coordinates, and cosmological models are elaborated upon. The book also examines experimental tests of general relativity and variational approaches. Targeted at scholars and students, the book aims to broaden understanding of general relativity and its applications.Generated by AI.General relativity (Physics)Generated by AISpace and timeGenerated by AIGeneral relativity (Physics)Space and timeVsemirnova Ekaterina1794193MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910985636203321General Relativity4334741UNINA
