Causal Graphs for EPR Experiments
philosophy of physics quantum theory Bell's theorem EPR argument non-locality causal graph theory Bayesian nets
2016/6/15
We examine possible causal structures of experiments with entangled quantum objects. Previously, these structures have been obscured (i) by assuming a misleading probabilistic analysis of quantum non ...
Axiomatizing Relativistic Dynamics using Formal Thought Experiments
First-order Modal Logic Relativistic Dynamics Thought Experiments Definition of Mass
2016/6/14
Thought experiments are widely used in the informal explanation of Relativity Theories; however, they are not present explicitly in formalized versions of Relativity Theory. In this paper, we present ...
Did Perrin's experiments convert Poincaré to Scientific Realism?
Atomism Fundamentalism Henri Poincare Scientific Realism Structural Realism
2016/6/13
In this paper I argue that Poincaré’s acceptance of the atom does not indicate a shift from instrumentalism to scientific realism. I examine the implications of Poincaré’s acceptance of the existence ...
Delayed-Choice Experiments and the Metaphysics of Entanglement
Delayed-choice experiments double-slit experiment entanglement swapping quantum eraser realism
2016/6/13
Delayed-choice experiments in quantum mechanics are often taken to undermine a realistic interpretation of the quantum state. More specifically, Healey has recently argued that the phenomenon of delay...
The Strong and Weak Senses of Theory-Ladenness of Experimentation:Theory-Driven versus Exploratory Experiments in the History of High-Energy Particle Physics
scientific experimentation theory-ladenness exploratory experimentation SLAC deep-inelastic scattering experiments particle physics quantum field theory S-matrix theory Regge theory Bjorken's scaling hypothesis Feynman's parton model quarks QCD
2016/5/30
In the theory-dominated view of scientific experimentation, all relations of theory and experiment are taken on a par; namely, that experiments are performed solely to ascertain the conclusions of sci...
Experiments in the Social Sciences: The relationship between External and Internal Validity
internal validity external validity experiments experimental economics
2009/9/16
The article identifies a latent debate in the recent literature on the role and worth of experiments in economics and other social sciences concerning the relationship between the external and the int...

It is conventionally understood that computers play a rather limited role in theoretical mathematics. While computation is indispensable in applied mathematics and the theory of computing and algorith...
Does heterophenomenology concede too much? Experiments on the Folk Theory of Consciousness
Experiments Folk Theory
2009/6/18
It is fairly common in the modern debates over qualia to find assumptions being made about the views of non-philosophers. It is often assumed that the concept is part of the folk theory of consciousne...
A New Perspective concerning Experiments on Semantic Intuitions
concerning Experiments Semantic Intuitions
2009/4/21
In two fascinating articles, Machery, Mallon, Nichols, and Stich (2004; forthcoming) use experimental methods to raise a specter of doubt about reliance on intuitions in developing theories of referen...
Exploratory Experiments
Experimentation Genomics
2008/4/22
Experiments do not merely allow scientists to test pre-existing hypotheses. While hypothesis-testing motivates much scientific activity, exploratory experimentation can be profitable given that the ri...
Newton’s Experimentum Crucis vs. Goethe’s Series of Experiments: Implications for the Underdetermination Thesis
color experimentation Goethe light Newton
2008/4/22
In the seventeenth century, Newton published his famous experimentum crucis, in which he claimed that light is heterogeneous and is composed of (colored) rays with different refrangibilities. Experime...
When are Discussions of Thought Experiments Poor Ones? A Comment on Peijnenburg and Atkinson
thought experiment EPR philosophy
2008/4/18
In their recent paper, "When are thought experiments poor ones?" (Peijnenburg/Atkinson 2003), Jeanne Peijnenburg and David Atkinson present an argument to the conclusion that most, if not all, philoso...
Thought experiments are ordinary argumentation disguised in a vivid pictorial or narrative form. This account of their nature will allow me to show that empiricism has nothing to fear from thought exp...
To explore Galileo’s innovative methodology, I have repeated most of his path-breaking experiments with pendulums; I have investigated the robustness of pendulum effects, otherwise difficult to captur...
