Autor


Pietro Frè is Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Torino, Italy and is currently serving as Scientific Counsellor of the Italian Embassy in Moscow. His scientific passion lies in supergravity and all allied topics, since the inception of the field, in 1976. He was professor at SISSA, worked in the USA and at CERN. He has taught General Relativity for 15 years. He has previously published two scientific monographs, Supergravity and Superstrings and The N=2 Wonderland . He is also the author of a popular science book on cosmology ( Il fascino oscuro dell´inflazione , Springer 2009), and two novels, in Italian.
