Metric Relativity and the Dynamical Bridge: highlights of Riemannian geometry in physics
by Mario Novello, Eduardo Bittencourt
Publisher: arXiv 2015
Number of pages: 121
Description:
We present an overview of recent developments concerning modifications of the geometry of space-time to describe various physical processes of interactions among classical and quantum configurations. We concentrate in two main lines of research: the Metric Relativity and the Dynamical Bridge.

Mass and Angular Momentum in General Relativity
by J.L. Jaramillo, E. Gourgoulhon - arXiv
We present an introduction to mass and angular momentum in General Relativity. After briefly reviewing energy-momentum for matter fields, first in the flat Minkowski case (Special Relativity) and then in curved spacetimes with or without symmetries.

Gravitational Waves, Sources, and Detectors
by Bernard F Schutz, Franco Ricci - arXiv
Notes of lectures for graduate students, covering the theory of linearized gravitational waves, their sources, and the prospects at the time for detecting gravitational waves. The lectures remain of interest for pedagogical reasons.

The Geometry of General Relativity
by Tevian Dray - Oregon State University
The manuscript emphasizes the use of differential forms, rather than tensors, which are barely mentioned. The focus is on the basic examples, namely the Schwarzschild black hole and the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological models.
