| Title | Relativity and Gravitation : 100 Years after Einstein in Prague |
| Author(s) | Bi????k, Ji????;Ledvinka, Tom???? |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2014. |
| Description | XXV, 590 p. 114 illus., 77 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In early April 1911 Albert Einstein arrived in Prague to become full professor of theoretical physics at the German part of Charles University. It was there, for the first time, that he concentrated primarily on the problem of gravitation. Before he left Prague in July 1912 he had submitted the paper ???Relativit??t und Gravitation: Erwiderung auf eine Bemerkung von M. Abraham??? in which he remarkably anticipated what a future theory of gravity should look like. At the occasion of the Einstein-in-Prague centenary an international meeting was organized under a title inspired by Einstein's last paper from the Prague period: "Relativity and Gravitation, 100 Years after Einstein in Prague". The main topics of the conference included: classical relativity, numerical relativity, relativistic astrophysics and cosmology, quantum gravity, experimental aspects of gravitation, and conceptual and historical issues. The conference attracted over 200 scientists from 31 countries, among them a number of leading experts in the field of general relativity and its applications. This volume includes abstracts of the plenary talks and full texts of contributed talks and articles based on the posters presented at the conference. These describe primarily original results of the authors. Full texts of the plenary talks are included in the volume "General Relativity, Cosmology and Astrophysics--Perspectives 100 Years after Einstein in Prague", eds. J. Bi????k and T. Ledvinka, published also by Springer Verlag |

| Title | General Relativity, Cosmology and Astrophysics : Perspectives 100 years after Einstein's stay in Prague |
| Author(s) | Bi????k, Ji????;Ledvinka, Tom???? |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2014. |
| Description | XV, 535 p. 117 illus., 80 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The articles included in this Volume represent a broad and highly qualified view on the present state of general relativity, quantum gravity, and their cosmological and astrophysical implications. As such, it may serve as a valuable source of knowledge and inspiration for experts in these fields, as well as an advanced source of information for young researchers. The occasion to gather together so many leading experts in the field was to celebrate the centenary of Einstein's stay in Prague in 1911-1912. It was in fact during his stay in Prague that Einstein started in earnest to develop his ideas about general relativity that fully developed in his paper in 1915. Approaching soon the centenary of his famous paper, this volume offers a precious overview of the path done by the scientific community in this intriguing and vibrant field in the last century, defining the challenges of the next 100 years. The content is divided into four broad parts: (i) Gravity and Prague, (ii) Classical General Relativity, (iii) Cosmology and Quantum Gravity, and (iv) Numerical Relativity and Relativistic Astrophysics |
