LEGATURA EDITORIALE. Condition: NUOVO. A Helgoland, spoglia isola nel Mare del Nord, luogo adatto alle idee estreme, nel giugno 1925 il ventitreenne Werner Heisenberg ha avviato quella che, secondo non pochi, è stata la più radicale rivoluzione scientifica di ogni tempo: la fisica quantistica. A distanza di quasi un secolo da quei giorni, la teoria dei quanti si è rivelata sempre più gremita di idee sconcertanti e inquietanti (fantasmatiche onde di probabilità, oggetti lontani che sembrano magicamente connessi fra loro, ecc.), ma al tempo stesso capace di innumerevoli conferme sperimentali, che hanno portato a ogni sorta di applicazioni tecnologiche. Si può dire che oggi la nostra comprensione del mondo si regga su tale teoria, tuttora profondamente misteriosa. In questo libro non solo si ricostruisce l'avventurosa e controversa crescita della teoria dei quanti, rendendo evidenti, anche per chi la ignora, i suoi passaggi cruciali, ma la si inserisce in una nuova visione, dove a un mondo fatto di sostanze si sostituisce un mondo fatto di relazioni, che si rispondono fra loro in un inesauribile gioco di specchi. Visione che induce a esplorare, in una prospettiva stupefacente, questioni fondamentali ancora irrisolte, dalla costituzione della natura a quella di noi stessi, che della natura siamo parte. Pagg. 219, brossura.

Hardback. Condition: New. Generalising Newton's law of gravitation, general relativity is one of the pillars of modern physics. While applications in the beginning were restricted to isolated effects such as a proper understanding of Mercury's orbit, the second half of the twentieth century saw a massive development of applications. These include cosmology, gravitational waves, and even very practical results for satellite based positioning systems as well as different approaches to unite general relativity with another very successful branch of physics - quantum theory. On the occassion of general relativity's centennial, leading scientists in the different branches of gravitational research review the history and recent advances in the main fields of applications of the theory, which was referred to by Lev Landau as "the most beautiful of the existing physical theories". Contributions from: Andy C. Fabian, Anthony L. Lasenby, Astrophysical black Holes Neil Ashby, GNSS and other applications of General Relativity Gene Byrd, Arthur Chernin, Pekka Teerikorpi, Mauri Vaaltonen, Observations of general Relativity at strong and weaks limits Ignazio Ciufolini, General Relativity and dragging of inertial frames Carlo Rovelli, The strange world of quantum spacetime.
