Book ChapterDOI
Relativistic Cosmology: Its Nature, Aims and Problems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors make only passing reference to astrophysical aspects of cosmology, and such features as GUTS, quantum gravity, etc., which are covered in depth in recent reviews, e.g., Gibbons, Hawking and Siklos, 1983; Royal Society 1983.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cosmological term as a source of mass
TL;DR: In this paper, the dominant energy condition, together with the requirement of regularity at the centre, asymptotic flatness and finiteness of the ADM mass, defines the family of asymPTotically flat globally regular solutions to the Einstein equations.
MonographDOI
Introduction to General Relativity
TL;DR: A student-friendly style, over 100 illustrations, and numerous exercises are brought together in this textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students in physics and mathematics as mentioned in this paper, where the core topics of black holes, gravitational radiation, and cosmology are covered, along with the relation between general relativity and other areas of fundamental physics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weight versus gravitational force: Historical and educational perspectives
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the existing dichotomy regarding the definition of weight and its implications in science education and discuss the history and epistemology of the weight concept and its present status in instruction and students' knowledge about weight.
