Co-taught with Roger Blandford and David Stevenson.
- General Relativity
(Ph236, 1998-99)
- Gravitational Waves: Theory (Ph103, 1995)
This was a one-time course designed for people who already knew the
fundamentals of general relativity. The lectures are being archived
on videotape in the Caltech library, and the library has two volumes
of lecture notes, problem sets, problem solutions, and readings
for the course.
- General
Relativity (Ph236, 1995-96)
- The Physics of LIGO (Ph103, 1994)
This was a one-time course on gravitational-wave experiment, organized
by Thorne and taught by various Caltech faculty and members of the
LIGO team. Two volumes of lecture notes, problem sets, problem solutions,
and readings for the course are available from the Caltech library:
QC411.P597 (1994) v.1; and QC411.P597 (1994) v.2.
