This book takes a historical approach to Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and shows the importance that geometry has to the theory. Starting from simpler and more general considerations, it goes on to detail the latest developments in the field and considers several cutting-edge research areas. It discusses Einstein’s theory from a geometrical and a field theoretic viewpoint, before moving on to address gravitational waves, black holes and cosmology.

The differential equations of mathematical physics have a twofold character: their physical content and their mathematical solutions. This book discusses the basic tools of theoretical physicists, applied mathematicians, and engineers, providing detailed insights into linear algebra, Fourier transforms, special functions, Laplace and Poisson, diffusion and vector equations. These basic tools are a set of methods and techniques, known as the equations of mathematical physics. At first sight, they look like a collection of disparate things. Many students in theoretical physics perceive them as strange, autonomous, inflexible, and ultimately unknown objects,…

This book presents the main results of extensive research on diffraction, radiation and propagation of elastic waves. In recent years, there has been an increase in interest in problems in the fields of diffraction, radiation and propagation of elastic waves associated with the interaction of bodies both with each other and with media interfaces. In addition, there is currently extensive focus on the solution of three-dimensional wave problems, with the help of Debye potentials, for elastic isotropic and anisotropic bodies of analytical and non-analytical forms.

This book is devoted to the ways of further development of pyrometry. A feature of pyrometry is that pyrometers are always calibrated by BB (blackbody), but the radiation spectrum of real objects differs from the radiation spectrum of BB. Therefore, a perfectly calibrated pyrometer will accurately measure the temperature of BB, but it will measure the temperature of a real object emitting differently from BB with an error. The more the intensity and spectrum of radiation of the measured object and BB differ, the greater this error. Therefore, pyrometer measurements…
Pyrometers are calibrated for blackbodies (BB), but real objects radiate differently, causing measurement errors. This book proposes original correction methods that account for an object’s radiation spectrum and its temperature dependence to increase the accuracy of pyrometry.

Everything You Need to Know About Black Holes
Shadow of an Extra Dimension
What exactly are black holes? Astronomers take spectacular photographs of these objects, but theoretical physicists are racking their brains trying to understand how they are formed and what will be their final fate. It is believed that they are the solution to one of the greatest challenges, i.e. the enormous difference between Einstein's model of gravity and quantum mechanics. Both theories describe our nature extremely accurately on a large scale and on a small scale. The former is a deterministic theory, while the latter is far from deterministic. Bringing these…
What are black holes? They may hold the key to unifying Einstein’s gravity and quantum mechanics. Are they the final stage of a collapsing star? Or do primordial black holes reveal a different origin? This book presents the latest insights into these enormous challenges.
