Professor

1:45:47·2012·graduate level

This session lays critical groundwork for general relativity, meticulously introducing proper notation and the essential principles of tensor analysis required for describing spacetime curvature.

(October 1, 2012) Leonard Susskind introduces some of the building blocks of general relativity including proper notation and tensor analysis.

This series is the fourth installment of a six-quarter series that explore the foundations of modern physics. In this quarter, Susskind focuses on Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.
