Magnetohydrodynamics: Waves and Shock Waves in Curved Space-Time

Více o knize

The book delves into the complexities of wave propagation in gravitational fields as described by Einstein's theory, highlighting the confusion surrounding the term "wave" in physics. It addresses the limitations of Fourier transforms in curved space-time and systematically examines waves related to physical phenomena like electromagnetic fields, fluid motion, and magnetohydrodynamics. The author discusses ordinary and shock waves, presenting a hyperbolic system of equations and referencing significant contributions from renowned scientists in the field since 1950.
