Il Nobel per la Fisica 2016 premia gli aspetti esotici - quantistici - della materia. Una bella trasmissione radiofonica - Radio Anch'io (RAI 1) - aiuta a districarsi nelle difficoltà di questo settore intervistando fra gli altri Guido Tonelli, Eugenio Coccia, Pietro Roversi, Giorgio Parisi.

And let us, at least for a moment, be pleased that our country will also have a technical structure for the orderly management of research funding according to government directives.
