Gravitational Lensing in Spacetimes
Petters, Arlie O. / Werner, Marcus
Gravitational lensing occupies a central role in astrophysics and cosmology. It addresses some of the most pressing scientific issues: determining the nature of dark matter, constraining the cosmological constant and evolving dark energy, estimating Hubble’s constant, and testing Einstein’s general theory of relativity using the Galactic black hole. All these topics are treated in the book. This unique monograph provides a rigorous, unified, e...
