Since 1963, the Texas Symposia have been a biennial, peripatetic forum for forefront developments on a wide range of topics in relativistic astrophysics, from pulsars to string theory, from the birth of the universe to the death of stars. The 26 plenary lectures, 230 parallel session talks and 265 poster presentations attest to the scientific vitality of this interdisciplinary field.
This text, which results from aq major astrophysics convocations, treats such subjects as binary pulsars, clusters of galaxies, large-scale structures, recent highlights of HST, sources of gravitational radiation, X- and gamma-background, Machos and dark matter, the solar neutrino problem, quasar absorption lines, inflationary cosmology, particle physics and cosmology, recent highlights of GRO, galactic centers, COBE results, high redshift quasars, quantum gravity, recent highlights from ASCA and ROSAT, supernovae and cosmic rays at high energies.
During the first decades after Einstein had developed his Theory of General Relativity, the main effort was to understand the theory and verify it experimentically. Meanwhile Genral Relativity is one of the experimentally best confirmed theories and has become a powerful tool for the investigation of cosmic processes where strong gravitational fields are involved. This book contains 16 contributions from well-known experts giving a broad overview for non-specialists who want to learn how to purely academic issues like gravitational wave detectors are now put into reality.

The proceedings will be of interest to scientists, researchers, and graduate students in several areas of Relativistic Astrophysics, including Cosmology, Astroparticle Physics, High Energy Astrophysics and Gravitational Wave Physics. Started in 1963 in Dallas, the Texas Symposia on Relativistic Astrophysics have become one of the leading international conference series in the field of Relativity, Cosmology and Gravitation. These Proceedings contain invited review talks given by leading experts on the occasion of the 25th Texas Symposium in Heidelberg, Germany, December 2010. Topics covered include Dark Energy, Tests of General Relativity, Gravitational Waves, Progress in High Energy Astrophysics, Cosmic Magnetic and Radiation Fields. The volume will be of particular interest for students and researchers in all fields connected to Relativistic Astrophysics.
