A service of the High-Energy Astrophysics Learning Center. A nice introduction to black holes. Intended for ages 14 and up. http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/introduction/black_holes.html This is a website that describes the geometry of a black hole and what would happen if one were to fall into one. http://casa.colorado.edu/~ajsh/schw.shtml an illustrated introductory guide to relativity http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/relatvty.htm a brief overview of black holes - the maths that allows and describes them, their formation, and their weird properties. http://www.geocities.com/jwyg/Black_hole.html A book outlining the Yilmaz refinement of Einstein's theory which eliminates black holes and the big bang. http://www.olduniverse.com/ Elementary information about black holes, including how they are observed, what happens to particles entering one, and a description of their close relatives, neutron stars. http://www.angelfire.com/hi3/wolferine/science.html What are black holes? Do they really exist? How can we find them? http://www.howstuffworks.com/black-hole.htm By putting a black hole into a familiar environment like a desk, one may experience what `curvature of space' means in a new way, understanding the cosmological effects of light bending and gravitational lenses from this playground. http://www.photon.at/~werner/bh/ Educational site on the Birmingham Uni XMM website. http://www.sr.bham.ac.uk/xmm/blackholes.html A very basic web site on the geometry of black holes and what they would theoretically look like in space time. http://www.astro.ku.dk/~cramer/RelViz/text/geom_web/geom_front.html Loosely speaking, a black hole is a region of space that has so much mass concentrated in it that there is no way for a nearby object to escape its gravitational pull http://cosmology.berkeley.edu/Education/BHfaq.html From the University of Illinois. Educational sequence suitable for high school students. http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Cyberia/NumRel/BlackHoles.html An interactive journey into a black hole. http://library.thinkquest.org/10148/ Observational evidence of black holes from Cambridge. http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/gr/public/bh_home.html A good list of FAQ questions with detailed answers. http://cosmology.berkeley.edu/BHfaq.html Laying your hands on a black hole is hard (and dangerous) to do, but there are ways to understand these objects and avoid the pain of dimension-bending. http://www.astrosociety.org/pubs/mercury/9802/lockwood.html Provides information on black holes. http://www.geocities.com/blackholeinfo/ |
