The Search for Non-Newtonian Gravity (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides the first book-length exposition of the ideas and current methods in the searches for derivations from the predictions of Newtonian gravity, focusing on macroscopic tests. A historical development is combined with detailed technical discussions of the theoretical ideas and experimental results. It is intended for graduate students and researchers who are interested in studying this question either experimentally or theoretically, including the relevance of this question to modern elementary particle physics and cosmology.
