What is Scattering from Black Holes (Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics) about?

Aimed at advanced undergraduates with background knowledge of classical mechanics and electricity and magnetism, this textbook presents both the particle dynamics relevant to general relativity, and the field dynamics necessary to understand the theory. Focusing on action extremization, the book develops the structure and predictions of general relativity by analogy with familiar physical systems. Topics ranging from classical field theory to minimal surfaces and relativistic strings are covered in a homogeneous manner. Nearly 150 exercises and numerous examples throughout the textbook enable students to test their understanding of the material covered. A tensor manipulation package to help students overcome the computational challenge associated with general relativity is available on a site hosted by the author. A link to this and to a solutions manual can be found at www.cambridge.org/9780521762458 Foreword; 1. Introduction; 2. Perturbations of black hole spacetimes; 3. Integral spin plane waves in black hole; 4. Neutrino plane waves; 5. Scattering; 6. Limiting cross sections; 7. Computation of cross sections; 8. Absorption, phase shifts and cross sections for gravitational wave
