Gravitational WavesI. Ciufolini, V. Gorini, U. Moschella, P Fre CRC Press, 29 ene 2001 - 412 páginas Gravitational waves (GWs) are a hot topic and promise to play a central role in astrophysics, cosmology, and theoretical physics. Technological developments have led us to the brink of their direct observation, which could become a reality in the coming years. The direct observation of GWs will open an entirely new field: GW astronomy. This is expe |
