Philosophical Foundations of Loop Quantum Gravity
Carlo Rovelli, Francesca Vidotto
Understanding the quantum aspects of gravity is not only a matter of equations and experiments. Gravity is intimately connected with the structure of space and time, and understand…
How causation is rooted into thermodynamics
Carlo Rovelli
The notions of cause and effect are widely employed in science. I discuss why and how they are rooted into thermodynamics. The entropy gradient (i) explains in which sense interven…
Quantum zero point electromagnetic energy difference between the superconducting and the normal phase in a HTc superconducting metal bulk sample
Annalisa Allocca, Saverio Avino, Sergio Balestrieri +31
We provide a novel methodological approach to the estimate of the change of the Quantum Vacuum electromagnetic energy density in a High critical Temperature superconducting metal b…
Information is Physical: Cross-Perspective Links in Relational Quantum Mechanics
Emily Adlam, Carlo Rovelli
Relational quantum mechanics (RQM) is an interpretation of quantum mechanics based on the idea that quantum states describe not an absolute property of a system but rather a relati…
