Jamie Olsen: Einstein's Gravity and the Expanding Universe: A Cosmic Connection, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This title offers several advantages:
Intrigue: "Beyond the Static" sparks curiosity about the unexpected connection.
Clarity: "Einstein's Gravity" and "Expanding Universe" clearly define the focus.
Cosmic Link: "Cosmic Connection" emphasizes the surprising relationship.
Here's a breakdown of the content it could cover:
A Puzzling Universe: Briefly introduce the early 20th-century concept of a static universe and the challenge posed by observations of an expanding cosmos.
Einstein's Surprise: Discuss how Einstein's theory of general relativity, initially designed for a static universe, could be adapted to explain an expanding one.
Gravity's Guiding Hand:
oHighlight how Einstein's theory demonstrates the link between gravity and the overall structure and evolution of the universe.
oBriefly mention the concept of spacetime curvature and its role in shaping the expanding universe.
A Universe in Motion:
oBriefly touch upon the ongoing debate about dark energy and its role in driving the accelerated expansion of the universe.
