Description: Numerical Relativity, Hardcover by Shibata, Masaru, ISBN 9814699713, ISBN-13 9789814699716, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Shibata presents this mathematical text discussing numerical methods of solving relativistic equations in physics. The preface discusses the necessity of numerical computation in the field. The first chapter reviews basic concepts of general relativity and high-energy astrophysics with a particular focus on gravitational waves and their equations. Part I describes numerical techniques for different types of problems, including 3+1 or N+1 formulations, finite-differencing methods, matter field equations, initial-value problems, deriving gravitational waves, and locating the apparent horizon of a black hole. Part II applies these techniques to relativistic simulations and presents the results of such simulations for neutron star-neutron star and neutron star-black hole binaries, black hole formation, instability of relativistic objects, and higher-dimensional high energy physics.
