标题： The physics of gravitational waves

摘要： 这些讲义收集了我多年来在关于引力波物理的各种短期课程中使用的材料，首先是在巴黎天体物理研究所（法国），然后是在SISSA（意大利）以及各种暑期/冬季学校。 该水平应适合物理学博士生或已经修过广义相对论第一门课程的硕士生。 重点是从基本原理推导结果，而不是在天体物理应用上。 显示英文摘要

摘要： These lecture notes collect the material that I have been using over the years for various short courses on the physics of gravitational waves, first at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris (France), and then at SISSA (Italy) and various summer/winter schools. The level should be appropriate for PhD students in physics or for MSc students that have taken a first course in general relativity. The focus is on deriving results from first principles, rather than on astrophysical applications.
