Planck Scale Effects in Astrophysics and Cosmology


Add your own review!

Overview

This volume is composed of extensive and detailed notes from the lectures given at the 40th Karpacz Winter School. This school focussed on quantum gravity phenomenology with emphasis on its relation to observational astrophysics and cosmology. These notes have been carefully edited with the aim to give advanced students and young researchers a balanced and accessible introduction to a rather heavily mathematical subject.

Reviews

Aus den Rezensionen: ! Die Stringtheorie erfordert fur ihre Konsistenz die Existenz von sechs oder sieben submikroskopisch kleinen Extradimensionen, und in der Schleifen-Quantengravitationstheorie erweisen sich sogar Raum und Zeit als 'kornig', das heisst gequantelt. Das sollte auch beobachtbare Konsequenzen haben. Die Teilchenbeschleuniger freilich sind viel zu energiearm, um solche Planck Effekte nachweisen zu konnen. ! Die Physiker Giovanni Amelino-Camelia ! und Jurek Kowalski-Glikman ! haben einen Sammelband herausgegeben, in dem die fuhrenden Forscher uber solche Planck Scale Effects in Astrophysics and Cosmology nachdenken - bereits jetzt ein Standardwerk ! (in: bild der wissenschaft -- Sammelband, 2006, S. 605)
