Science

Materials about black holes from the national center for teaching and learning about the structure and evolution of the universe; sponsored by NASA and created by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

Selected talks (slides and audio) from a 1999 Teachers Educational Forum on black holes at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (UCSB); topics: black hole basics, astrophysical aspects, how to build a black hole in your classroom, and the relation with string theory.

Basic ideas of black hole physics, plus some more advanced material about astrophysical and quantum-gravity aspects; based on lectures given as part of a course "Foundations of Physics I" by Gabor Kunstatter at the University of Winnipeg in 2002.
