Equations of motion in general relativity
Asada, H.
Equations of motion in general relativity [electronic resource] / by Hideki Asada, Toshifumi Futamase, Peter Hogan. - Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2011. - 1 online resource. - International series of monographs on physics ; no. 148 . - International series of monographs on physics ; no. 148. .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Einstein's theory of general relativity describes the gravitational field of a system of stars and predicts their paths by providing the 'equations of motion' of each star. Extracting these equations from his field equations is a highly technical procedure described in this book.
