Dans ses "Sept brèves leçons de physique", Carlo Rovelli confiait : qu'une question avait guidé sa vie de chercheur : la nature du temps. Se hissant sur les épaules d'Isaac Newton, d'Albert Einstein, de Stephen Hawking et de bien d'autres, il nous livre enfin ses découvertes dans ce livre majeur. Le temps est au cœur d'un étrange mystère. Tel un flocon de neige qui fond lorsqu'on s'en saisit, il s'est progressivement délité sous les assauts de la science : on sait dorénavant que le temps s'écoule plus lentement en plaine qu'en altitude.

Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, prix Nobel de physique 1997, retrace son itinéraire personnel et scientifique et un demi-siècle d'évolution de la physique quantique. Sur ce sujet nul n'est mieux placé que lui, qui en a extrait les applications les plus caractéristiques et les plus étonnantes à la fois: la domestication –; et en particulier le refroidissement –; des atomes à l'aide de la lumière. La genèse de ces résultats révolutionnaires –; dont les applications commencent seulement à poindre aujourd'hui –; constitue un témoignage unique sur le développement de la physique et des techniques du XXè siècle.

Let us journey, with beloved physicist Carlo Rovelli, into the heart of a black hole. Let us slip beyond its boundary, the horizon, and tumble - on and on - down this crack in the universe. As we plunge, we'll see geometry fold, we'll feel the equations draw tight around us. Eventually, we'll pass it: the remains of a star, deep and dense and falling further far. And then - the bottom. Where time and space end, and the white hole is born.

“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.”

A chi le chiede come riassumerebbe la breve esistenza di suo figlio, morto ad appena 15 anni, la mamma del beato Carlo Acutis risponde con queste parole: "Direi che tutta la sua vita verteva sull’incontro quotidiano con Dio. Non aveva bisogno di tante cose. Lo definirei controcorrente in un tempo come l’attuale. Carlo ha vissuto in pienezza la sua breve esistenza. E ha lasciato una splendida testimonianza".
