Which of these bizarre phenomena, if any, can really exist in our universe? Black holes, down which anything can fall but from which nothing can return; wormholes, short spacewarps connecting regions of the cosmos; singularities, where space and time are so violently warped that time ceases to exist and space becomes a kind of foam; gravitational waves, which carry symphonic accounts of collisions of black holes billions of years ago; and time machines, for traveling backward and forward in time. Kip Thorne, along with fellow theorists Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose, a cadre of Russians, and earlier scientists such as Oppenheimer, Wheeler and Chandrasekhar, has been in the thick of the quest to secure answers. In this masterfully written and brilliantly informed work of scientific history and explanation, Dr. Thorne, the Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics at Caltech, leads his readers through an elegant, always human, tapestry of interlocking themes, coming finally to a uniquely informed answer to the great question: what principles control our universe and why do physicists think they know the things they think they know? Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time has been one of the greatest best-sellers in publishing history. Anyone who struggled with that book will find here a more slowly paced but equally mind-stretching experience, with the added fascination of a rich historical and human component.
Kip Thorne is the Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics Emeritus at Caltech, an executive producer for Interstellar, and the author of books including the bestselling Black Holes and Time Warps. He lives in Pasadena, California.
作者: 第五元素[20963026] 时间:2003-07-15 09:21:03 收藏 加入文集 报警 昨晚在独自研读《黑洞与时间弯曲》时,被一个小问题纠缠不清,现只好求助于各位先知,恳请赐教。 家有此藏书者,可翻到229页,作者在这里讨论的牛顿和爱因斯坦关于黑洞的临界周长以下的...
評分很惭愧,这样一本独一无二的书,我最近才把它读完。实在非常后悔我没有在做研究生的时候读完这本书。不过现在读完,对正在改革开放的我仍然有很大的影响。 买到这本书的时候我还是个物理学的大一新生,被书中的精彩的插图吸引才花钱把它从图书大厦的殿堂请到我...
評分 評分愚人节,在Chopin琴曲的陪伴下,看完了《黑洞与时间弯曲》。 海伯利安的开头,领事在雷暴雨里弹钢琴;星际穿越里的配乐都是钢琴的琴声,我在读这本书的时候,逐渐感受到: 钢琴曲和深邃的宇宙如此匹配,是不是因为宇宙就是一张不断颤抖着的钢琴呢? 没有想象中的枯燥,虽然的确...
比較好的學院派科普,時候想要從事這方麵工作的人閱讀。
评分Kip在我心中變得日益偉大,很想在他活著的時候見他一麵。這本書優點太多瞭,漸漸也有瞭自己的讀的方式,最後三章關於黑洞本質,量子引力,時間機器的討論還沒看。 準備寫一篇讀書筆記,特彆是四五六三章。
评分Kip Thorne是個瞭不起的作傢,閱讀體驗太好瞭
评分Best astrophysics book for me!
