It can study stellar stability, the orbits (with radiation . Sample exams labeled "Part II" with the 4 sections presented as a 5-hour exam continue to be valuable for Written Exam study, if reviewed as separate 75-minute topics. Here t is the timelike coordinate, and (u 1, u 2, u 3) are the coordinates on ; is the maximally symmetric metric on .This formula is a special case of (7.2), which we used to derive the Schwarzschild metric, except we have scaled t such that g tt = - 1.
