Albert Einstein, on November 4, 1915, presented at the Prussian Academy of Sciences the first of four lectures about a covariant formulation to modify the Newtonian physics of the universal gravitation. Since then, General Relativity has not only passed all the tests it has been put through but has become the paradigm of any new theory of gravitation. To celebrate its centenary we are organizing a scientific meeting in Centre for Theoretical Physics, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi, in the period of December 10 – 12, 2015.
The main objective of the meeting is to expose young researchers to the different areas of General Relativity, its applications.
Workshop themes:
- General Relativity
- Cosmological solutions of General Relativity
- Astrophysical General Relativity
- Quantization of Gravity
