Einstein's Field Equations and Their Physical Implications : Selected Essays in Honour of Jürgen Ehlers (Lecture Notes in Physics)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book serves two purposes. The authors present important aspects of modern research on the mathematical structure of Einstein's field equations and they show how to extract their physical content from them by mathematically exact methods. The essays are devoted to exact solutions and to the Cauchy problem of the field equations as well as to post-Newtonian approximations that have direct physical implications. Further topics concern quantum gravity and optics in gravitational fields.The book addresses researchers in relativity and differential geometry but can also be used as additional reading material for graduate students.

Book Info
Contents include: selected solutions of Einstein's field equations and their role in general relativity and astrophysics, the Cauchy problem for the Einstein equations, post-Newtonian Gravitational Radiation, and more.
