The most up-to-date, one-stop reference combines coverage of both theory and observational techniques, with introductory sections to bring all readers up to the same level. Written by outstanding researchers directly involved with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) built by CALTECH and MIT, the book begins with a brief review of geometry, before going on to look at gravitational waves and sources of gravitational radiation. Further sections cover gravitational wave detectors, data analysis, and gravitational wave astronomy and astrophysics.
