Relativistic Celestial Mechanics of the Solar System
Year: 2011 Language: english Author: Sergei Kopeikin Publisher: Wiley ISBN: 978-3-527-63456-9 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 892 Description: This authoritative book presents the theoretical development of gravitational physics as it applies to the dynamics of celestial bodies and the analysis of precise astronomical observations. In so doing, it fills the need for a textbook that teaches modern dynamical astronomy with a strong emphasis on the relativistic aspects of the subject produced by the curved geometry of four-dimensional spacetime.
