Introduction to black hole physics

These pages accompany the lectures delivered by Éric Gourgoulhon in the framework of the Chaire Georges Lemaître.

The lectures introduce some aspects of black hole physics via a geometrical approach. The prerequisite is some basic knowledge of general relativity, at the level of an introductory course.

You will find here:

• the plan of the courses
• the slides of the figures illustrating the courses
• the lecture notes, as well as their sources (LaTeX and Inkscape files)
• some SageMath worksheets for computations involved in the course
