  • Emergence in Condensed Matter and Quantum Gravity

    A Nontechnical Review

    de George Musser ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book surveys the science at a semipopular, Scientific American-level. It is even-handed with regard to competing directions of research and philosophical positions. It is hard to get even two people to agree on anything, yet a million billion water molecules can suddenly and abruptly coordinate to lock themselves into an ice crystal or liberate one another to billow outwards as steam. The ... Leer más

  • Inquietanti azioni a distanza

    de George Musser ...
    «L'universo» scrive George Musser introducendo la sua sorprendente incursione nelle acquisizioni della fisica contemporanea «è un luogo selvaggio e capriccioso, pieno di insidie e di arbìtri»; eppure, su quello sfondo, «le leggi del mondo brillano per la loro rassicurante regolarità». Una regolarità che passa per vincoli come quello della «località», cui Einstein associava due aspetti chiave – la ... Leer más

    What is space? It isn’t a question that most of us normally stop to ask. Space is the venue of physics; it’s where things exist, where they move and take shape. Yet over the past few decades, physicists have discovered a phenomenon that operates outside the confines of space and time. The phenomenon—the ability of one particle to affect another instantly across the vastness of space—appears to be ... Leer más
