Su Vero e Falso in senso gravitazionale, ovvero di virtuosismi virtuali

ON TRUTH AND FAKE IN A GRAVITATIONAL SENSE, OR ABOUT VIRTUAL VIRTUOSITIES The discovery of the existence of gravitational waves not only represents the experimental proof of Einstein’s theory, but also an improvement of the world of Physics. In fact, gravitational waves are directly connected to the structure of the radiant objects, it is just like they gave us back a “snapshot”, thus making possible the construction of new maps of the Sky, that will no longer be based on visible light, Xrays, or infrared rays, but exactly on the particles forming the gravitational waves. So, the President of “Società Italiana di Relatività Generale e Fisica della Gravitazione (Sigrav)” can affirm: «We may discover new Worlds, identify wormholes and live the experience of deforming the order of past, present and future as well as the way we are used to perceiving them». Plurality of Worlds and deformation of Time: in a way, the Virtuality of physic Reality gets stronger. Hence, S&F_ aims to open a consideration about the state of the art of the “Virtual” – a notion that from Medieval ontology seems to set up itself as the litmus paper no longer and not only of “potential” Reality, but of Reality itself. The purpose of this Dossier will be investigating virtual Semantics in a multidisciplinary key, in order to verify if the concept of Virtual has effectively ceased to mean the Fake and, by consequence, to which extent it has become able to designate the Truth.
