Sites:
- Are There Pictorial Examples of Covariant and Contravariant Vectors
- We present pictorial means of distinguishing contravariant vectors (or simply vectors) from covariant vectors (or linear forms).
- The Casimir Effect in Relativity
-
- Cosmic Strings
- A review of the physics which predicts the properties of cosmic strings and topological defects.
- Cosmic Topology
- General relativity does not allow one to specify the topology of space, leaving the possibility that space is multi- rather than simply- connected. This paper reviews the mathematical properties of multi-connected spaces, and the different tools to classify them and to analyse their properties.
- An Essay on General Relativity
- This site contains a comprehensive introduction to the basic ideas and tests of general relativity
- General Relativity Simulation Contest
- The purpose of this Contest is to prove General Relativity using a (simple) algorithm.
- Gravitational Lensing
- A popular site with interactive demonstrations of gravitational lensing. The background material is at a graduate level
- Gravitational Waves: An Introduction
- This paper presents an elementary introduction to the theory of gravitational waves. This article is meant for students who have had an exposure to general relativity, but results from general relativity have been derived in the appendices.
- Gravity Probe B
- Gravity Probe B is the relativity gyroscope experiment being developed by NASA and Stanford University to test two extraordinary, unverified predictions of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.
- Handbook of Space Astronomy and Astrophysics - Relativity
- A collection of equations important to both special relativity and general relativity.
- Interactive Experiments in Gravity
- Try an experiment that illustrates the gravitational attraction between two objects or use a Java applet to understand how orbits work in strongly curved space-time.
- An introduction to the Yilmaz Theory of Gravity
- Yilmaz discovered an alternative theory of gravitation which surmounts some of the defects of general relativity. The solutions of the field equations contain neither space-time singularities, or, equivalently, there are no black holes.
- NOVA Online/Einstein Revealed
- Profile of Albert Einstein, with additional teaching resources, Shockwave demonstrations, and animations of relativity concepts.
