Where can I learn general relativity?

Where can I learn general relativity?

The best way to learn General Relativity and Gravity are to watch these video lectures on YouTube from The WE-Heraeus International Winter School on Gravity and Light 2015 Central Lectures. Schuller has the best and most clear and mathematically rigorous (and he teaches it very well) exposition on the subject.

Is General Relativity a hard class?

While relativity has a reputation for being intimidatingly difficult, it’s a peculiar kind of difficulty. Coming at the subject without any preparation, you hear all kinds of crazy things about time dilating and space stretching, and it seems all very recondite and baffling.

What should I study to become a general relativity physicist?

First general relativity is typically taught at a 4th year undergraduate level or sometimes even a graduate level, obviously this presumes a good undergraduate training in mathematics and physics. Personally, I’m more of the opinion that one should go and learn other physics before tackling general relativity.

What is the introduction to general relativity?

The introduction is based on the consideration of many practical generic examples in various scopes of the General Relativity. After the completion of the course you will be able to solve basic standard problems of this theory. We assume that you are familiar with the Special Theory of Relativity and Classical Electrodynamics.

Are the predictions of general relativity in relation to classical physics?

The predictions of general relativity in relation to classical physics have been confirmed in all observations and experiments to date. Although general relativity is not the only relativistic theory of gravity, it is the simplest theory that is consistent with experimental data.
