Book excerpt: This book contains the proceedings of the 10th Hellenic Relativity Conference, held in Greece in 2002. It includes several plenary lectures given by leading experts on brane-world cosmology, radiative space-times, detection of gravitational waves, gamma-ray bursts and quantum gravity. There are a large number of contributed papers, organized into three broad subject areas: cosmology and brane gravity, mathematical relativity and astrophysical relativity, and the detection of gravitational waves. Contents: Radiative Fields in Spacetimes with Minkowski and de Sitter Asymptotics (J Bicik); Gravitational Wave Detectors: A Report from LIGO-Land (G Gonzalez); Brane-World Cosmology (R Maartens); Consistent Discrete Gravity Solution of the Problem of Time: A Model (J Pullin); Dark Energy or Extra Dimension Oscillations? (L Perivolaropoulos); Cosmic Rays and Large Extra Dimensions (D Kazanas & A Nicolaidis); Completeness Theorems in General Relativity (Y Choquet-Bruhat & S Cotsakis); Gravity Wave Boost of Cosmic Magnetic Fields (C G Tsagas et al.); Axisymmetric Modes of Differentially Rotating Neutron Stars (T A Apostolatos et al.); Stellar Perturbation Theory and the Detection of Gravitational Waves from Neutron-Star Binaries (E Berti); and other papers. Readership: Researchers and graduate students in astrophysics, astronomy, cosmology and theoretical physics."
