Cornell is a private, Ivy League university and the land-grant institution of higher education for New York State. Cornell's undertaking is to discover, preserve, and disseminate knowledge; produce creative work; and promote a culture of broad inquiry throughout and beyond the Cornell community

Relativity and Astrophysics

Explore the controlling and intriguing connections among astronomy and Einstein’s theory of relativity. By studying relativity and astronomy jointly, you will develop physical insight and quantitative skills, and you’ll regain a profound sense of wonder for the universe we call home.

Course covers the following:

Section One—Introduction
Section Two—3, 2, 1 … Launching the journey into spacetime
Section Three—Special relativity: from light to dark
Section Four—General relativity: from flat to curved

What one learns is the following:

Explain the importance and significance of the postulates of special and general relativity.
Talk about significant experimental tests of both special and general relativity.
Analyze paradoxes in special relativity.
Relate appropriate tools for problem solving in special relativity.
Explain astrophysical situations where the consequences of relativity qualitatively impact predictions and/or observations.
express daily situations where relativity makes a difference.
