A First Class Constraint Generates Not a Gauge Transformation,But a Bad Physical Change:The Case of Electromagnetism
empirical equivalence gauge freedom quantum gravity problem of time
2016/6/15
In Dirac-Bergmann constrained dynamics, a first-class constraint typically does not _alone_ generate a gauge transformation. By direct calculation it is found that each first-class constraint in Maxwe...

Los científicos tratan de persuadir a sus colegas y, en última instancia, al conjunto de la sociedad, para que acepten sus tesis, descubrimientos y propuestas. Desarrollan para ello una serie de estra...
Evolutionary Epistemology:Random Change in Science
evolutionary epistemology serendipity history of internal symmetries in particle physics
2016/6/14
cientific thought is generally characterized as methodical and rational. I would like to present here an opposing view which treats science as a non-systematic activity, where serendipity, tinkering a...
The key role of causal explanation in the climate change issue
climate change knowledge causal explanation cambio climático conocimiento explicación causal
2016/5/31
In the context of climate change, the adoption of pro-environment behaviour is favoured by the understanding of causal passages within climate science. The understanding of the causes of climate chang...
Conceptual Role Semantics,the Theory Theory,and Conceptual Change
conceptual change conceptual role semantics theory theory of concepts
2015/7/30
The purpose of the paper is twofold. I first outline a philosophical theory of concepts based on conceptual role semantics. This approach is explicitly intended as a framework for the study and explan...
Unity and change in Newton's physics
unity change perduring enduring law-constitutive Newton
2011/9/7
Here is a problem at the heart of the metaphysics of the natural world: How, if at all, can a unity undergo change? This problem incorporates two questions. First, in virtue of what is a thing a genui...

The objective of this article is to sketch an historical analysis of the change in the philosophy of science that took place in the 1950s and 1960s around the time of the publication of Structure by T...

The Epistemic Goal of a Concept: Accounting for the Rationality of Semantic Change and Variation

2009/6/24
The discussion presents a framework of concepts that is intended to account for the rationality of semantic change and variation, suggesting that each scientific concept consists of three components o...
How the Growth of Science Ended Theory Change
pessimistic meta-induction no miracles argument
2009/6/5
This paper outlines a defense of scientific realism against the pessimistic meta-induction which appeals to the phenomenon of the exponential growth of science. Here, scientific realism is defined as ...
Object and event concepts are represented differently in the cognitive process. Schank and Abelson have proposed to use scripts to describe people’s knowledge of events, and subsequent cognitive stud...
The Representation of Time and Change in Mechanics
Classical Mechanics General Relativity Symmetry Time
2008/4/21
This paper is concerned with the representation of time and change in
classical (i.e., non-quantum) physical theories. One of the main goals is to attempt to clarify the nature and scope of the so-ca...
Theory Change and Bayesian Statistical Inference

2008/4/21
This paper addresses the problem that Bayesian statistical inference cannot accommodate theory change, and proposes a framework for dealing with such changes. It first presents a scheme for generating...
Change Without Change, and How to Observe it in General Relativity

2008/4/10
All change involves temporal variation of properties. There is change in the physical world only if genuine physical magnitudes take on different values at different times. We defend the possibility o...
An alternative to Kitcher's theory of conceptual progress and his account of the change of the gene concept
concepts conceptual change gene concept
2008/4/10
The present paper discusses Kitcher’s framework for studying conceptual change and progress. Kitcher’s core notion of reference potential is hard to apply to concrete cases. In addition, an account of...
