<內容簡介>

An ideal choice for undergraduate students of science and engineering, this book presents a thorough exploration of the basic concepts of relativity. The treatment provides more than the typical coverage of introductory texts, and it offers maximum flexibility since many sections may be used independently, in altered order, or omitted altogether. Numerous problems — most with hints and answers — make this volume ideal for supplementary reading and self-study.
Nearly 300 diagrams illuminate the three-part treatment, which examines special relativity in terms of kinematics and introductory dynamics as well as general relativity. Specific topics include the speed of light, the relative character of simultaneity, the Lorentz transformation, the conservation of momentum and energy, nuclei and fundamental particles, the principle of equivalence and curved space-time, Einstein's equations, and many other topics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書是一本針對科學和工程學本科生的理想選擇,它全面探討了相對論的基本概念。這本書的內容超越了一般入門教材的範圍,並且提供了最大的靈活性,因為許多章節可以獨立使用、改變順序或完全省略。大量的問題(大多數附有提示和答案)使得這本書非常適合作為補充閱讀和自學材料。

近300個圖表說明了這本書的三個部分,其中介紹了以運動學和入門動力學為基礎的特殊相對論以及廣義相對論。具體的主題包括光速、同時性的相對性、洛倫茲變換、動量和能量的守恆、原子核和基本粒子、等效原理和彎曲時空、愛因斯坦方程等等。
