Scattering From Black Holes

Informationen zum Autor J. A. H. Futterman is a physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.This book investigates the propagation of waves in the presence of black holes. The authors emphasise intuitive physical thinking in their treatment of the techniques of analysis of scattering, but alternate this with chapters on the rigourous mathematical development of the subject.
