1 ๐Ÿงญ ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Reading Guide โ€” General Relativity Series

Explore step by step one of the most revolutionary theories of Physics.


1.1 ๐Ÿ“˜ Introduction

The Theory of General Relativity, formulated by Albert Einstein in 1915, replaced the classical notion of gravity as a force with a profound view: gravity is the curvature of spacetime caused by the presence of mass and energy.

This series of posts presents the essential concepts of this theory in a progressive way, with a didactic focus and accessible language.

Currently, only Part 1 is available. The next parts will be published soon.


1.2 ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Part 1 โ€” The Problem of Gravity

  • ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Part 2 โ€” Gravity as Curvature of Spacetime
  • ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Part 3 โ€” Einsteinโ€™s Equations
  • ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Part 4 โ€” Experimental and Observational Tests
  • ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Part 5 โ€” Limits and Boundaries of the Theory
  • ๐Ÿ“š ๐ŸŒ  Part 6 โ€” Legacy, Applications, and the Future
