About The Book
"Black Holes: A Laboratory for Testing the Laws of Physics" by Valeri P. Frolov provides a detailed and comprehensive study of black holes, one of the most fascinating subjects in modern theoretical physics and astrophysics. For years, black holes have been studied as solutions to the Theory of General Relativity, with intriguing mathematical properties. The book highlights how, with the discovery of astrophysical black holes, Einstein's theory of gravity has become an essential tool for studying these cosmic phenomena.
This self-contained textbook integrates the physical, mathematical, and astrophysical aspects of black hole theory, offering a pedagogically presented approach to the subject. It covers the classic material on black holes, including their formation, properties, and behavior. Additionally, it delves into relatively new topics, such as the role of hidden symmetries in black hole physics and the study of black holes in spacetimes with large extra dimensions.
Rich with insights and detailed discussions, this book is aimed at students, young scientists, and anyone fascinated by black holes. Its clear presentation and comprehensive coverage make it an invaluable resource for those looking to explore this captivating area of modern physics.
