(Categ. Scienze - Chimica e Fisica) - (In 8.vo cm. 20x25,5) - (Legatura : brossura editoriale illustrata) - (pp. XXVI+1277) - Vol. in lingua inglese con ill. in b.n. n.t. La gravitazione è un libro di riferimento a livello di laurea che presenta la teoria generale della relatività di Einstein e offre un corso rigoroso di un anno intero sulla fisica della gravitazione. Dopo la pubblicazione, la scienza lo ha definito - un capolavoro pedagogico - e da allora è diventato una lettura classica, considerata essenziale per ogni studente e ricercatore serio nel campo della relatività. Questo autorevole testo ha plasmato la ricerca di generazioni di fisici e astronomi e il libro continua a influenzare il modo in cui gli esperti pensano sull'argomento. Con un'enfasi sull'interpretazione geometrica, questo libro magistrale e completo introduce la teoria della relatività; descrive le applicazioni fisiche, dalle stelle ai buchi neri e alle onde gravitazionali; e ritrae le frontiere del campo. Il libro offre anche un percorso unico, alternato, a due tracce attraverso il soggetto. Il materiale focalizzato sulle idee fisiche di base è designato come Traccia 1 e formula un corso di laurea specialistica di un semestre. Il restante materiale della traccia 2 fornisce una vasta gamma di argomenti avanzati a cui gli istruttori possono attingere per un corso di due semestri, con sezioni della traccia 1 che servono come prerequisiti. Riferimento indispensabile per studenti e studiosi. Il libro insegna agli studenti a: * Comprendere le leggi della fisica nello spaziotempo piatto e curvo * Prevedere gli ordini di grandezza * Calcolare usando i principali strumenti della geometria moderna * Comprendere la struttura geometrica di Einstein per la fisica * Esplora le applicazioni, tra cui stelle di neutroni, Schwarzschild e Kerr buchi neri, collasso gravitazionale, onde gravitazionali, cosmologia e molto altro ancora (9d). Minimi segni alla brossura. Esemplare in ottime condizioni che non presenta, al suo interno, segni da studio o altri danni.

1st Edition. Full volume with original wrappers bound in. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPS OF WEBER'S INVENTION OF THE FIRST GRAVITATIONAL WAVES DETECTOR. Hamiltonian formulation of the equations of general relativity now known as ADM formalism. WEBER: "The detection of gravitational waves is sometimes described as the Holy Grail of Modern Physics" (Blair, Advances Gravitational Wave Detectors, xvi). Gravitational waves, or ripples in the fabric of spacetime, were first predicted by Einstein's 1916 general theory of relativity. In February 2016, the September 2015 detection of gravitational waves, waves first predicted by Einstein over a hundred years ago, was announced. "The saga of gravitational wave detection goes back a long way: Einstein believed they existed but thought they were not physically detectable. Eddington queried their existence: he suggested that â??they travel at the speed of thought'. But in the 1950's Pirani, Feynman, Bondi and later Isaacson proved their physical reality, and in 1960 Joseph Weber began to develop his famous resonant mass detectors. (Blair, Advances Gravitational Wave Detectors, xvi). Weber's "famous resonant mass detector" "consisted of large vibration-isolated aluminium cylinders constructed with piezoelectric crystals glued on the surface near to the center. These crystals are able to develop a large voltage when they undergo deformation. A low noise amplifier and lock-in amplifier allowed detection of the energy of the fundamental longitudinal resonance of the bar. A gravitational wave applies a time-varying quadrupole deformation and does mechanical work on the fundamental acoustic modes of the test mass. "The absorption cross-section of the mechanical resonator to gravitational waves depends on its mass and sound velocity and is highest at the fundamental resonant frequency. The latter is linked to sound velocity and the resonator's length, since the length must be half an acoustic wavelength at the fundamental longitudinal resonance. Weber chose aluminum because of its high sound velocity, and availability in large pieces, and because it has quite low acoustic losses" (Blair ibid, 61). NAMBU: In this paper, Nambu provides an "essential aid to understanding hidden symmetry in quantum field theory [with his] remarkable insight that the vacuum state of a quantum field theory is analogous to the ground state of an interacting many-body system. It is the state of lowest energy - the equilibrium state, given the kinetic and potential energies as specified in the Hamiltonian" (Aitchison, Gauge Theories, 199). Nambu is suggesting "that some massless particles transform themselves into massive particles as a result of spontaneous symmetry breaking at low energies" (Wenner). In 2008 Nambu won the Nobel Prize for his work on this subject; specifically, "for the discovery of the mechanism of spontaneous broken symmetry in subatomic physics" (NPC). ARNOWITT: One of a series of papers in which Misner, Deser, and Arnowit formulated a Hamiltonian formulation of the equations of general relativity that are more easily quantized than Einstein's original equations. A Hamiltonian formulation of general relativity that plays an important role in canonical quantum gravity and numerical relativity, their set of equations is now called the ADM formalism. CONDITION & DETAILS: Complete. Volume 117, January to March 1960. Original wrappers bound. Handsome (oddly enough) pictorial bookplate on front pastedown and a quite light stamp on each front wrap. Bound in brown buckram, gilt-lettered at the spine. Likely never opened or used. Tightly and very solidly bound. Bright and clean inside and out. Very good + condition.

Soft cover. Condición: Good. 1st Edition. 202x252mm; pp. [4, red card 'sign conventions'], xxvi, [4]. STEPHEN HAWKING'S COPY OF 'MTW', THE LEGENDARY BOOK ON GRAVITATION, REVIEWED BY HIM IN NATURE. Under the title 'General Relativity' Hawking reviewed the book in Nature (21 June 1974), stating that "the book is a major landmark in the field' and correctly foreseeing that would 'become the most widely used textbook and reference work on the subject." More than this praise, however, Hawking uses his review to expound on an issue very close to his heart: the relationship between quantum physics and general relativity: "During the period 1920-1960," he writes, "the most exciting field of physics seemed to be quantum theory. The success of quantum electrodynamics led most physicists to feel that physics was Feynman diagrams. They distrusted general relativity because of its classical and geometric nature. [. . .] But geometric insights have played an important part in many of the outstanding recent theoretical developments such as black holes, space-time singularities and gravitational radiation. The answer therefore seems to be not to free general relativity from geometry but to teach geometry to nhvsicists brought up on the normal ideas of special relativity; that is, to teach them to regard space-time as a differentiable manifold and not as a flat vector space. This is what Misner, Thorne and Wheeler have set out to do in their book." Given the enormous size and weight of the book it is hard not to wonder at Hawking's reading of it, and sure enough he does comment on this, wryly, at the end of his review, noting that the book is "well printed and bound and the paperback version is cheap for a book of this size." Although generally unmarked, there is a pencil mathematical annotation in the chapter on black holes. Tantalizing as this is, we do not claim that the note is by Hawking, as his handwriting had already deteriotated markedly by 1973. 'MTW' is rightly understood as a classic in the exposition of general relativity. In 2003 Hawking's collaborater James Hartle wrote that "Over thirty years since its publication, Gravitation is still the most comprehensive treatise on general relativity. An authoritative and complete discussion of almost any topic in the subject can be found within its 1300 pages. It also contains an extensive bibliography with references to original sources. Written by three twentieth-century masters of the subject, it set the style for many later texts on the subject". Hawking himself returned to the text a number of times, notably in his and Werner Israel's book 'Three Hundred Years of Gravitation' (Cambridge, 1987). An outstanding association copy: provenance comes via the Cambridge bookshop that handled Hawking's personal library and is indicated by a custom bookplate. Good condition: quite well used, spine marked from repeated opening, top edge lightly spotted; faint damp marking to the lower edge of the final quarter or so of the book.
