It has been over 100 years since the presentation of the Theory of General Relativity by Albert Einstein, in its final formulation, to the Royal Prussian Academy of Sciences. To celebrate 100 years of general relativity, World Scientific publishes this volume with a dual goal: to assess the current status of the field of general relativity in broad terms, and discuss future directions. The volume thus consists of broad overviews summarizing major developments over the past decades and their perspective contributions.

Contents:

  • General Relativity and Compact Stars (Norman K Glendenning)
  • Non-Spherical Compact Stellar Objects in Einstein's Theory of General Relativity (Omair Zubairi and Fridolin Weber)
  • Pseudo-Complex General Relativity: Theory and Observational Consequences (Peter O Hess and Walter Greiner)
  • Strange Matter: A State before Black Hole (Renxin Xu and Yanjun Guo)
  • Building Non-Spherical Cosmic Structures (Roberto A Sussman)
  • Cosmology after Einstein (Marc Lachièze-Rey)
  • Highlights of Standard Model Results from ATLAS and CMS (Cristina Biino)
  • Beyond the Standard Model Searches at ATLAS and CMS (Géraldine Conti)
  • Results from LHCb (Katharina Müller)
  • TeV Astrophysics: Probing the Relativistic Universe (Ulisses Barres de Almeida)
  • Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger (B P Abbott et al.)

Readership: Undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers in the field of astrophysics and cosmology.
Key Features:

  • Prominent contributors
  • A unique treatment of certain topics
