Carlo Rovelli is affiliated with Aix-Marseille University in France and specializes in physics and astronomy, with a focus on several subfields including atomic and molecular physics and optics, astronomy and astrophysics, statistical and nonlinear physics, nuclear and high energy physics, and the history and philosophy of science.
Their research covers multiple main topics: quantum mechanics and applications, noncommutative and quantum gravity theories, cosmology and gravitation theories, black holes and theoretical physics, quantum electrodynamics and the Casimir effect, philosophy and history of science, and relativity and gravitational theory.
Recent notable papers include the following:
Their frequent coauthors include Marios Christodoulou, Andrea Di Biagio, Richard Howl, Francesca Vidotto, and Farshid Soltani, reflecting collaborative work primarily in the areas of quantum gravity and theoretical physics.
The primary publication venues for their work include arXiv, Physical Review D, Philosophy of Physics, PhilSci-Archive, and Foundations of Physics.
Carlo Rovelli has also contributed to several book publications across different publishers. With Cambridge University Press, they published "General Relativity: The Essentials" and "Vision," both in 2021. They have also published two editions of "Time and Science" in 2022 with WORLD SCIENTIFIC (EUROPE) eBooks, and a forthcoming book titled "Sept brèves leçons de physique" is expected from Groupe Flammarion in 2025.
