Description
Numerical relativity has emerged as a key tool for understanding gravitational waves, recently detected in cosmic collisions. This book provides an accessible introduction to the subject, using analogies with Newtonian gravity and other familiar concepts to explain complex ideas. Through numerous exercises and accompanying Python sample codes, readers can explore these concepts and develop familiarity with techniques commonly employed by numerical relativity codes. This makes it an attractive resource for short courses on numerical relativity, as well as supplementary reading for courses on general relativity and computational physics.
