General Relativity Lecture 4

Felix Bloch Professor of Theoretical Physics

1:41:01·2012·graduate level

This lecture introduces the fundamental concepts of gravity within Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, analyzing basic gravitational fields and their geometric implications for spacetime. It situates gravity within the broader framework of modern physics.

(October 15, 2012) Leonard Susskind moves the course into discussions of gravity and basic gravitational fields.

The Fall 2012 quarter of the Modern Physics series concentrates on Einstein's theory of gravity and geometry: the General Theory of Relativity. This course is the fourth of a six-quarter sequence of classes that explores the essential theoretical foundations of modern physics.
