How has the most celebrated scientific theory of our century held up under today's exacting scrutiny of planetary probes, radio astronomy, atomic clocks, and electronic super-computers? After eighty years, was Einstein right? Einstein's theory has proven crucial to our understanding of such recently discovered features of the cosmos as pulsars, quasars, black holes, and gravitational lenses. Clifford Will has written a lively and lucid chronicle of the triumph of one of the towering intellectual achievements of our century. This book is intended for general; students on courses in modern physics or relativity.

See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> Third, their existence makes us ask the question, "Was Einstein right?" Every item in the preceding list involves Ein- stein's general theory of relativity in a crucial way. Black holes, the remains of dead, collapsed stars, are an important predic- tion of the theory; a black hole is thought to be responsible for the astronomical X-ray source Cygnus X1, and they are be- lieved by many to power quasars, the incredibly luminous beacons that we can see almost to the edge of the visible universe. The cosmic fireball radiation is most likely the after- glow of the big bang that began the universe, an event whose understanding requires the theory of relativity. The structure of pulsars, believed to be rapidly spinning neutron stars, is strongly influenced by super-strong general relativistic gravi- tational forces. Finally, the recently discovered gravitational lenses are galaxies that bend and focus passing light by means. Codice articolo Batch-FM241-G-6370
