{"product_id":"relativistic-figures-of-equilibrium-reinhard-meinel-9780521863834","title":"Relativistic Figures of Equilibrium","description":"First book of its kind  This much-needed text treats the classical problem of gravitational physics within Einstein's theory of general relativity. It presents the basic principles and equations needed to describe rotating fluid bodies, as well as black holes in equilibrium. In recent years, the study of neutron stars and black holes has become increasingly important, and rigorous mathematical analysis needs to be applied in order to understand their basic physics; This text fills the void  The book concludes by considering the general case using powerful numerical methods that are applied to various models, including the classical example of equilibrium figures of constant density. Researchers in general relativity, mathematical physics, and astrophysics will find this a valuable reference book on the topic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Reinhard Meinel, Marcus Ansorg, Andreas Kleinw臘hter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 052186383X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521863834\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/26\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 7.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2008 pg. 44","brand":"Reinhard Meinel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44522253254911,"sku":"9780521863834","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e6c4a018-6e69-444f-9c8a-976a688f6b46.jpg?v=1700156311","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/relativistic-figures-of-equilibrium-reinhard-meinel-9780521863834","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
