Abstract

General Relativity and Gravitation is devoted to all aspects of modern gravitational physics, and published under the auspices of the International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation. The journal presents letters, research papers, review articles and comments on all theoretical and experimental aspects of modern general relativity and gravitation and its extensions, plus book reviews, related mathematical topics, results and techniques. Coverage includes Extensions of general relativity; Numerical relativity; Astrophysical applications of relativistic gravity; Experimental gravitational physics, in particular experimental tests of general relativity: gravitational wave data analysis and phenomenology; Theoretical and observational cosmology ; quantum field theory in curved space-time; supergravity and gravitational aspects of string theory and its extensions; Quantum gravity and cosmology; and Teaching, public understanding, and history of general relativity and gravitation.

Abstract

'The Feynman Lectures on Gravitation' are based on notes prepared during a course on gravitational physics that Richard Feynman taught at Caltech during the 1962-63 academic year. For several years prior to these lectures, Feynman thought long and hard about the fundamental problems in gravitational physics, yet he published very little. These lectures represent a useful record of his viewpoints and some of his insights into gravity and its application to cosmology, superstars, wormholes, and gravitational waves at that particular time. The lectures also contain a number of fascinating digressions and asides on the foundations of physics and other issues.Characteristically, Feynman took and untraditional non-geometric approach to gravitation and general relativity based on the underlying quantum aspects of gravity. Hence, these lectures contain a unique pedagogical account of the development of Einstein's general relativity as the inevitable result of the demand for a self-consistent theory of a massless spin-2 field (the graviton) coupled to the energy-momentum tensor of matter. This approach also demonstrates the intimate and fundamental connection between gauge invariance and the Principle of Equivalence.

Abstract

To commemorate the 300th anniversary of the publication of Isaac Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, Stephen Hawking and Werner Israel assembled a series of unique review papers by many of the world's foremost researchers in cosmology, relativity, and particle physics. The resulting volume reflects the significant and exciting advances that have been made in these fields since the editors' acclaimed volume, General Relativity: An Einstein Centenary Survey (CUP 1979). Newton's immense contribution to the physical sciences is assessed, and its relevance to today's physics made clear. The international group of contributors then chart the major developments in the study of gravitation, from Newtonian gravity to black hole physics. In the fields of galaxy formation, inflationary and quantum cosmology, and superstring unification, the book provides important overviews written by workers involved in the many advances described. By shaping such a wide-ranging and scholarly series of articles into a cohesive whole, the editors have created a fitting and lasting memorial to the man who continues to inspire scientists the world over.

Abstract

Classical and Quantum Gravity welcomes original research articles on all branches of gravitational physics and the theory of spacetime. The readership of the journal is broad, comprising gravitational theorists and experimentalists in physics, mathematics and cosmology. All articles should be of interest to this broad readership and should contain a summary that places the findings in the wider context of gravitational physics.
