Popis: | We give a pedagogical introduction of the essential features of General Theory of Relativity (GTR) in the format of an undergraduate (UG) project. A set of simple MATHEMATICA code is developed which enables the UG students to calculate the tensorial objects without prior knowledge of any package operation. The orbit equations of light and material particle in Minkowski and Schwarzschild spacetime are solved numerically to illustrate the crucial tests of GTR. Comment: 17 pages |
