Reconsidering Born's Postulate and Collapse Theory
Foundations of quantum mechanics Born’s postulate fluctuations in space and time wave collapse hidden variables
2016/6/15
We investigate the possibility that the amplitude of quantum wave can have a deeper physical meaning other than the probabilistic interpretation base on Born’s postulate. We find that the probabilisti...
I explore the reduction of thermodynamics to statistical mechanics by treating the former as a control theory: a theory of which transitions between states can be induced on a system (assumed to obey ...
Shifting Attention From Theory to Practice in Philosophy of Biology
investigative practice gene concept evolutionary theory reductionism biology
2016/6/15
Traditional approaches in philosophy of biology focus attention on biological concepts, explanations, and theories, on evidential support and inter-theoretical relations. Newer approaches shift attent...
In this article I try to once again endorse absolute time into the Philosophy of Physics. The way I endorse absolute time is quite natural and as far as I know is new in debate (c.f. 1CThe fate of pre...
Kuhnian theory-choice,the GWS model,and the neutral current
theory-choice Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model weak neutral current theoretical virtues discovery
2016/6/15
In the Kuhnian view of theory choice, theories, as a matter of empirical fact, often score differently well with regard to the standard theoretical virtues. The case I discuss in this paper, however, ...
Response to `Local and global definitions of time:Cosmology and quantum theory'
Local global definitions time Cosmology quantum theory
2016/6/15
I will discuss the notion of time and spatial finiteness from the perspective of observational cosmology. Our observed universe is well described at early times by small fluctuations in the spatial gr...
Theory Reduction in Physics:A Model-Based,Dynamical Systems Approach
reduction theory reduction physics dynamical system emergence intertheory relations inter-theory relations Nagel limit
2016/6/15
In 1973, Nickles identified two senses in which the term `reduction' is used to describe the relationship between physical theories: namely, the sense based on Nagel's seminal account of reduction in ...
Time and Quantum Theory:A History and A Prospectus
time quantum Pauli's theorem events Dirac Heisenberg
2016/6/15
In this paper I am concerned with analyzing in detail how ideas and expectations regarding the role of time in quantum theory arose and evolved in the early years of quantum mechanics (from 1925-27). ...
The speed of change:towards a discontinuity theory of immunity?
Immunology philosophy of immunology continuity-discontinuity theory self identity self-nonself theory model molecular biology
2016/6/15
Immunology, though deeply experimental in everyday practice, is also a theoretical discipline. Recent advances in the understanding of innate immunity, how it is triggered, and how it shares features ...
Local and global definitions of time:Cosmology and quantum theory
Cosmology relational time spatial extent time
2016/6/15
I will give a broad overview of what has become the standard paradigm in cosmology. I will describe the relational (\`{a} la Leibnitz) notion of time that is often used in cosmological calculations an...
I offer an account of how the quantum theory we have helps us explain the enormous variety of phenomena it is generally taken to explain. The account depends on what I have elsewhere called a pragmati...
Logic,Geometry And Probability Theory
quantum logic-lattice theory-geometry of quantum mechanics-quantum probability
2016/6/13
We discuss the relationship between logic, geometry and probability theory under the light of a novel approach to quantum probabilities which generalizes the method developed by R. T. Cox to the quant...
Matter or geometry as fundamental in relativity theory:How not to teach special relativity
relativity spacetime ontology constructivism
2016/6/13
In this paper, I review a number of interpretational frameworks for relativistic phenomena like length contraction and relativity of simultaneity. Of central focus is the book Physical Relativity by H...
