“Da qualche anno la mia ricerca si è concentrata sui buchi bianchi, elusivi fratelli minori dei buchi neri. Questo è il mio libro sui buchi bianchi. Provo a raccontare come sono fatti i buchi neri, che vediamo nel cielo a centinaia. Cosa accade sul bordo di queste strane stelle, l’orizzonte, dove il tempo appare rallentare fino a fermarsi e lo spazio sembra strapparsi. Poi giù, dentro, nelle regioni più interne, fin dove tempo e spazio si sciolgono. Fin dove è come rimbalzare indietro nel tempo. Fin dove nascono i buchi bianchi.”

Une histoire des notions d'espace et de temps. Des visions du cosmos dans la Grèce ancienne aux théories récentes sur la gravité quantique, Carlo Rovelli explore les métamorphoses de la notion d'espace et de temps. Une approche lumineuse de l'histoire des sciences par le biais de ces " coordonnées fondamentales de notre description du monde ". L'espace et le temps dans la physique contemporaine.

We take time for granted as it passes during every moment of our existence. Other things may change, but time remains constant and predictable. The past, the present, and the future exist within a harmonious, reliable, and never-changing system. Or at least that’s how it seems. It was Albert Einstein who, in 1905, first theorized that time might not be quite as straightforward as that. In one of the most influential papers on physics ever published[1], he proposed something called “time dilatation.”

Black holes are a constant source of fascination to many due to their mysterious nature. This Very Short Introduction audiobook addresses a variety of questions, including what a black hole actually is, how they are characterized and discovered, and what would happen if you came too close to one.

People are used to seeing "fake physics" in science fiction - concepts like faster-than-light travel, antigravity, and time travel to name a few. The fiction label ought to be a giveaway, but some SF writers - especially those with a background in professional science - are so adept at "technobabble" that it can be difficult to work out what is fake and what is real. To confuse matters further, Isaac Asimov's 1948 piece about the fictitious time-traveling substance thiotimoline was written, not as a short story, but in the form of a spoof research paper.

Les secrets de la matière et les premiers instants de l'univers. L'accélérateur de particules du CERN, le L.H.C., ('Large Hadron Collider'), est la machine la plus grande, la plus chère, la plus puissante jamais construite par l'homme. Son but est d'accélérer deux faisceaux de protons, (des constituants des noyaux atomiques), en sens inverse, et de les porter à une collision frontale. Les physiciens veulent étudier les produits de cette gigantesque collision. Pourquoi? On peut y répondre de deux façons.

Several years ago I became interested in the ideas of real time travel and dimensional travel. I’ve been trained in science and modern physics as well as engineering so I knew that modern theories of our physical world did not include the possibilities that time or dimensional travel existed. As I did my research on stories of people who had travelled through time or additional dimensions there were many very credible stories. These stories eventually led me to conclude that time or dimensional travel through portals or veils does exist and some persons have experienced it.

In Handprints on Hubble, retired astronaut Kathryn Sullivan describes her work on the NASA team that made all of this possible. Sullivan, the first American woman to walk in space, recounts how she and other astronauts, engineers, and scientists launched, rescued, repaired, and maintained Hubble, the most productive observatory ever built.

Inesperado best seller en Italia, con traducciones a más de veinte idiomas, Siete breves lecciones de física se ha convertido en un éxito bien sencillo de explicar por algo muy difícil de conseguir: con pasión, fluidez y una encomiable voluntad de presentar de un modo diáfano temas complejos, Carlo Rovelli, científico de estirpe humanista, nos propone un breve pero muy completo recorrido por los hitos de la física de los últimos cien años en siete lecciones magistrales.

The Enduring Human Quest for New Energy. Where Science Ends and Imagination Begins: Defining "Fictional Energy" The Concept of "Latest Discoveries" in a Fictional Context

Are you seeking a deeper understanding of consciousness? Are you interested in meditation or currently practicing meditation? The Buddha and the Quantum is about the connection between meditation and physics. Many books show parallels between consciousness and physics; a few of these attempt to explain consciousness in terms of the physics of everyday experience. This is the only book that explains physics and the everyday world in terms of consciousness alone.

In 10 Mind-Bending Ways Quantum Physics Is Rewriting Reality, you’ll discover how the bizarre rules of the quantum world are transforming not only science, but also philosophy, technology, and our everyday experience of being alive. From particles that can be in two places at once to quantum entanglement that Einstein famously called “spooky action at a distance,” this book takes you on a thrilling tour through the strangest terrain in modern science. But it doesn’t stop at the weirdness. It shows how quantum discoveries are already reshaping the very foundations of reality.

Sir Isaac Newton famously complained about action at a distance. How was it possible, he wrote, that gravity, or attraction, operated between objects without physical contact? Well, jump to the twenty-first century, and we have a lot more to say about that. Listeners will enjoy a brilliant, outrageous, playful exploration of quantum physics in everyday life, from a secret interplay of TV plots with us, in electricity, to other speculations, founded in the authors decades of initiations as well as being an original thinker and a scholar.

For hundreds of years, scientists of quantum physics have been telling things that looked unrealistic at the time they were living in. These scientists understood that everything is energy and discovered the most unbelievable laws that you are probably already familiar with.

No one can escape a sense of awe when reflecting on the workings of the mind: we see, we hear, we feel, we are aware of the world around us. But what is the mind? What do we mean when we say we are “aware” of something? What is this peculiar state in our heads, at once utterly familiar and bewilderingly mysterious, that we call awareness or consciousness? In Physics in Mind, eminent biophysicist Werner R. Loewenstein argues that to answer these questions, we must first understand the physical mechanisms that underlie the workings of the mind.

Explore the revolutionary world of quantum computing in Entangled Realities: The Power and Promise of Quantum Computing, a groundbreaking book that unravels the science, history, and transformative potential of one of the most advanced technologies of our time. Quantum computing isn’t just another step in technological evolution—it’s a leap into a new paradigm that challenges our understanding of computation, security, and even the nature of reality itself.

Jimena Canales desgrana en este libro uno de los aspectos más desconocidos y fascinantes de la historia de la ciencia. Porque son estos siervos imaginarios y ocultos los que han ayudado a desvelar los secretos de la entropía, la herencia, la relatividad, la mecánica cuántica y otras maravillas científicas, y son ellos los que siguen inspirando hoy los avances en los ámbitos de la informática, la física y la inteligencia artificial.

時間の常識を根底から覆す！
時間はいつでもどこでも同じように経過するわけではなく、過去から未来へと流れるわけでもない──。

The author devoted more than 20 years to this book, proving a philosophical principle and making several critical comments on different theories regarding social problems we are now facing: what is the natural foundation of human subsistence or human phenomena? Why is the progression of civilization and its social development inevitably moving toward an endangering destination? And why are the mental attributes and knowledge system ultimately proved unhelpful or even appear negative?
