Course Details
• Spacetime Fundamentals: An introduction to the concept of spacetime as a fabric that combines three dimensions of space and one dimension of time. • General Relativity: A study of Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, which describes how gravity affects spacetime. • Special Relativity: An exploration of Einstein's theory of special relativity, which deals with the physics of objects moving at constant speeds in a straight line. • Spacetime Curvature: Examining how matter and energy can cause spacetime to curve, leading to phenomena like gravitational time dilation and orbital mechanics. • Spacetime Geometry: Delving into the geometry of spacetime, including the study of the metric tensor, geodesics, and the mathematical tools used to describe spacetime curvature. • Quantum Gravity: Investigating the intersection of quantum mechanics and general relativity, including the challenges and potential solutions for creating a quantum theory of gravity. • Black Holes and Singularities: Understanding the nature of black holes and singularities, their properties, and their significance in the study of spacetime. • Cosmological Models: Examining the various cosmological models that describe the large-scale structure and evolution of the universe, including the Big Bang theory and dark matter. • Experimental Tests and Observations: Reviewing the experimental tests and observations that have confirmed or refuted various aspects of spacetime physics, including gravitational waves and the equivalence principle.
