  1. 11. Simple cosmological models and their descriptions of the universe

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Matematik och tillämpad matematik

    Author : Emil Gustafsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Tensors; General relativity; Einstein s field equations; Cosmology; Friedmann s equation; FLRW-spacetimes; Tensorer; Allmän relativitetsteori; Einsteins fältekvationer; Kosmologi; Friedmanns ekvation; FLRW-rumtider;

    Abstract : Cosmology is the study of the universe as a whole, and attempts to describe the behaviour of the universe mathematically. The simplest relativistic cosmological models are derived from Einstein's field equations with the assumptions of isotropy and homogeneity. READ MORE

  3. 12. Theoretical Foundations and Experimental Detection of Gravitational Radiation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Axel Philip; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Gravitational waves emerge as a prediction of Einstein’s theory of general relativity. On account of the recent detection, by the LIGO scientific collaboration, this thesis offers a brief review of the fundamentals of gravitational wave theory, and of the challenges involved in direct experimental detection.

  4. 13. Counting Black Hole Microstates in String Theory

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Jorge Laraña Aragón; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this project, we explore the area of black holes in String Theory. String Theory has had several successes in describing properties of black holes. READ MORE

  5. 14. Stokes' Theorem on Smooth Manifolds

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

    Author : Erik Jörgenfelt; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A proof of Stokes' theorem on smooth manifolds is given, complete with prerequisite results in tensor algebra and differential geometry. The essay assumes familiarity with multi-variable calculus and linear algebra, as well as a basic understanding of point-set topology. READ MORE

  6. 15. Gravitational Wave Interaction in a Vlasov Plasma

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Oskar Janson; [2013]
    Keywords : gravitational waves; general relativity; plasma; physics; vlasov;

    Abstract : Gravitational waves are predicted by Einstein’s general theory of relativity and have so far only been indirectly detected. The first direct detection should however only be a matter of time, with observatories across the world working hard to detect them. READ MORE
