The aim of this book is to become a major reference text for gravitational-wave physics, covering in detail both the experimental and the theoretical aspects. It is the only existing book on gravitational waves to date, and it will likely remain unique for its broadness and scope. It brings the reader to the forefront of present-day research, both theoretical and experimental, assuming no previous knowledge of gravitational-wave physics. Part I of Volume 1 is devoted to the theory of gravitational waves. Here we have re-derived - in a coherent way - most of the results that we present, clarifying or streamlining existing derivations. Part II of Volume 1 is devoted to a description of experimental gravitational-wave physics. We discuss in great detail existing and planned experiments, as well as data analysis techniques.

In November 1919, newspapers around the world alerted readers to a sensational new theory of the universe: Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. Coming at a time of social, political, and economic upheaval, Einstein's theory quickly became a rich cultural resource with many uses beyond physical theory. Media coverage of relativity in Britain took on qualities of pastiche and parody, as serious attempts to evaluate Einstein's theory jostled with jokes and satires linking relativity to everything from railway budgets to religion. The image of a befuddled newspaper reader attempting to explain Einstein's theory to his companions became a set piece in the popular press. "Loving Faster than Light" focuses on the popular reception of relativity in Britain, demonstrating how abstract science came to be entangled with class politics, new media technology, changing sex relations, crime, cricket, and cinematography in the British imagination during the 1920s. Blending literary analysis with insights from the history of science, Katy Price reveals how cultural meanings for Einstein's relativity were negotiated in newspapers with differing political agendas, popular science magazines, pulp fiction adventure and romance stories, detective plots, and esoteric love poetry. "Loving Faster than Light" is an essential read for anyone interested in popular science, the intersection of science and literature, and the social and cultural history of physics.

Die vorliegende Schrift behandelt die Kalenderlehre unter bewuBter Ausscheidung aller historischen Betrachtungen. Liegt darin einerseits e: ne Beschrankung, so glaubt der Ver fasser andererseits durch die Loslosung von der vielverschlungenen und daher mit mancherlei Ballast behafteten Entwickelungs geschichte des Kalenderwesens dessen mathematischen Kern sozusagen reinlicher herausschalen zu konnen, als es bei einer historischen Darstellung moglich ware. Die Schrift wendet sich an einen sehr allgemeinen Leser kreis. Sie mochte jedem Gebildeten zuganglich sein, der mathe matischen Oberlegungen einfachster Art Interesse entgegen bringt. Da und dort mag vieHeicht der Historiker bei chrono logischen Untersuchungen aus ihr Nutzen ziehen konnen. Eine besondere Freude ware es dem V erfasser, wenn zuweilen ein Feldgrauer nach dem Schriftchen griffe; weiB er doch aus eigener Erfahrung, wie es Zeiten gibt, in denen der Soldat nach irgendwelcher geistigen Anregung hungert - ganz ab gesehen davon, daB es im Felde von praktischem Interesse sein kann, nach kurzer Dberlegung zu wissen, welche Mondphase einem gegebenen Datum zukommt. Aber dariiber hinaus mochte das Biichlein auch dem an gehenden Mathematiker etwas zu sagen haben, und vor aHem dem Unterricht an hoheren Schulen dienen. Sollte die Schrift einem so verschiedenartigen Leserkreise gerecht werden, so war dies nur moglich durch eine besondere Behandlungsweise des Stoffes: die Darstellung zerfallt gewisser maBen in mehrere "Kreise," deren jeder in sich geschlossen und verstandlich ist. Der engste erfordert kaum mehr, als die Kennt nis der vier Grundrechnungsarten. Der nachste setzt schon Vorwort."
