November der Wissenschaft 2016: „Einsteins Relativitätstheorie im Universum und im Alltag“

Series of talks
How does Einstein's theory determine influence in the universe and our lives? Time dilation, black holes and gravitational waves are consequences of Einstein's theory of relativity. Dr. Benjamin Knispel talks about where these and other relativistic effects occur in the universe, but also how they affect us in our daily lives. [more]
