Surf these sites: A Short Course on General Relativity -- A graduate level course which includes weak field theory, gravitational waves, radiation damping, cosmology, the Friedmann and Lemaitre dusts, singularities, black holes, the Schwarzschild metric and Kruskal''s extension of it. This is a single postscript document. Black Holes -- Lecture notes for a course on Black Holes given at Cambridge. The course covers some of the developments in Black Hole physics of the 1960s and 1970s. Bondi K-Calculus -- A simple derivation of Einstein''s theory of relativity which is widely taught to undergraduate physics students. The mathematics required though make this easy for anyone to understand. Cosmology -- This page contains information about the course Cosmology and exobiology read in the fall semester 1999 at the Physics Institute of NTNU, Trondheim FREE TEXTBOOK - Tensor Calculus and Continuum Mechanics -- A free downloadable textbook on introductory tensor analysis and continuum mechanics. Falling into a Black Hole -- Fall into a black hole on a real free fall orbit through movies and images.All distortions of images are real, both general relativistic from the gravitational bending of light, and special relativistic from the near light speed orbit. General Relativity -- An undergraduate course covering the necessity for a theory of gravity, review of special relativity, tensor algebra, curved space-time, local inertial coordinates, short differential geometry, covariant derivatives, connections and curvature, curvature and geodesic deviation, Einstein''s equations General Relativity -- This homepage contains lecture notes on the course of general relativity FX2/H97 read in the fall semester 1997 at the Physics Institute of NTNU, Trondheim General Relativity and Cosmology -- An online notes from the University of British Columbia featuring simple explanations of cosmological phenomena. General Relativity for Undergraduates -- An online draft copy of an undergraduate text book on general relativity and cosmology. General Relativity: A Very Weird World -- Site graphically explains the fundamentals of general relativity. Covers most aspects of the subject very well. Geometry Around Black Holes (Michael Cramer Andersen) -- A WWW Exhibition in Relativistic Computer Dynamics and Visualization Introduction to Differential Geometry and General Relativity -- A course from the Department of Mathematics at Hofstra University on differential geometry and general relativity. Lecture Notes on General Relativity -- Download lecture notes on special relativity, general relativity, differential geometry, and spherically symmetric space-times in postscript format. Modern Physics Course -- A second year course on special relativity and quantum mechanics. All of the lecture notes can be downloaded, or viewed online. Relativity Tutorial -- an illustrated introductory guide to relativity Relativity and Cosmology -- undergraduate course notes include both special relativity (e.g., spacetime, Lorentz invariance, various "paradoxes") and general relativity (e.g., equivalence principle, black holes, gravitational waves, experimental tests of gtr). Apparently a survey course for non-majors, with little math but some very nice graphics. Space, Time, and Cosmology -- Website for an online realtivity class. Covers special relativity in depth and general relativity at a more qualitative level. Contains tutorial material, references, and links.
