TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that for spherically symmetric static backgrounds, a simple reduced Dirac equation can be obtained by using the Cartesian tetrad gauge in Cartesian holonomic coordinates, manifestly covariant under rotations so that the spherical coordinates can be separated in terms of angular spinors like in special relativity, obtaining a pair of radial equations and a specific form of the radial scalar product.
Abstract: It is shown that, for spherically symmetric static backgrounds, a simple reduced Dirac equation can be obtained by using the Cartesian tetrad gauge in Cartesian holonomic coordinates. This equation is manifestly covariant under rotations so that the spherical coordinates can be separated in terms of angular spinors like in special relativity, obtaining a pair of radial equations and a specific form of the radial scalar product. As an example, we analytically solve the anti-de Sitter oscillator giving the formula of the energy levels and the form of the corresponding eigenspinors.

TL;DR: In this article, a guide to the consequences of general relativity for gravity and cosmology sources is provided. But it is only available in the US and not in other countries in the world.
Abstract: Following your need to always fulfil the inspiration to obtain everybody is now simple. Connecting to the internet is one of the short cuts to do. There are so many sources that offer and connect us to other world condition. As one of the products to see in internet, this website becomes a very available place to look for countless general relativity a guide to its consequences for gravity and cosmology sources. Yeah, sources about the books from countries in the world are provided.

TL;DR: The mere special relativity does not explicitly predict existence of (sub-luminal) monopoles, but on the contrary explicitly predicts existence of super-luminous (tachyon) monopole, with magnetic charge about 100 times less than usually assumed as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Resnick and Chichester as mentioned in this paper discuss the measurement of length of a moving object, simultaneity, synchronization of clocks, the meaning of 'observer' and the difference between measure and see.
Abstract: R. Resnick Chichester: John Wiley. 1968 Pp. x + 226. Price £3 10s. (cloth), £1 15s. (paper) In recent years there seem to have been quite a number of admirable introductory books on relativity, due, I think, to the realization that it is possible to teach the subject at an early stage in a physics course. These have in common a very careful and painstaking discussion of topics like the measurement of length of a moving object, simultaneity, synchronization of clocks, the meaning of 'observer' and the difference between measure and see.
