Counterfactuals and non-locality of quantum mechanics
qyantum mechanics non-locality realism
<
2008/4/22
In the paper the proof of the non-locality of quantum mechanics, given recently by H. Stapp and D. Bedford, and appealing to the GHZ example, is analyzed. The proof does not contain any explicit assum...
In this paper I try to capture Newton's notion and practice of unification (I will mainly focus on the Principia). I will use contemporary theories on unification in philosophy of science as analytic ...
No place for particles in relativistic quantum theories?
localizable particles relativity and quantum theory
<
2008/4/22
Several recent arguments purport to show that there can be no relativistic, quantum-mechanical theory of localizable particles and, thus, that relativity and quantum mechanics can be reconciled only i...
No-common-cause EPR-like funny business in branching space-times
Reichenbach common cause branching space-times
<
2008/4/22
There is "no EPR-like funny business" if (contrary to
apparent fact) our world is as indeterministic as you wish,
but is free from the EPR-like quantum-mechanical phenomena
such as is sometimes des...
On the Common Structure of Bohmian Mechanics and the Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber Theory
quantum theory without observers Bohmian mechanics
<
2008/4/22
Bohmian mechanics and the Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber theory provide opposite resolutions of the quantum measurement problem: the former postulates additional variables (the particle positions) besides the ...
On the definition of a criterion of immunogenicity
Self Nonself Continuity Tolerance Immunogenicity
<
2008/4/22
The main objective of immunology is to establish why and when an immune response occurs, that is, to determine a criterion of immunogenicity. According to the consensus view, the proper criterion of i...
Analysis is presented of the derivation in [1] of what is popularly known as E = mc2. It is emphasized that once a relationship, describing a phenomenon in the stationary system, is known exactly and ...
On the Emergence of Time in Quantum Gravity
quantum gravity emergence quantum geometrodynamics
<
2008/4/22
We discuss from a philosophical perspective the way in
which the normal concept of time might be said to `emerge'
in a quantum theory of gravity. After an introduction, we
briefly discuss the notio...
On the Everettian epistemic problem
Everett interpretation many worlds quantum mechanics
<
2008/4/22
Recent work in the Everett interpretation has suggested that the problem of probability can be solved by understanding probability in terms of rationality. However, there are *two* problems relating t...
On the history of the so-called Lense-Thirring effect
Lense-Thirring effect Dragging Coriolis force
<
2008/4/22
Some historical documents, especially the Einstein-Besso manuscript from 1913,
an extensive notebook by Hans Thirring from 1917, and a correspondence between
Thirring and Albert Einstein in the year...
Explanatory Idealizations
Explanatory Idealizations
<
2008/4/22
A signal development in contemporary physics is the widespread use, in explanatory contexts, of highly idealized models. This paper argues that some highly idealized models in physics have genuine exp...
The purpose of this paper is to propose an extension to Lee Smolin's hypothesis that our own universe belongs to a population of universes which have evolved by natural selection. Smolin's hypothesis ...
Falling Cats, Parallel Parking, and Polarized Light
geometric phase Berry phase Aharonov-Bohm effect
<
2008/4/22
This paper addresses issues surrounding the concept of geometric phase or "anholonomy". Certain physical phenomena apparently require for their explanation and understanding, reference to toplogocial/...
Falsifications of Hameroff-Penrose Orch OR Model of Consciousness and Novel Avenues for Development of Quantum Mind Theory
quantum mind consciousness Hameroff-Penrose Orch OR
<
2008/4/22
In this paper we try to make a clear distinction between quantum mysticism and quantum mind theory. Quackery always accompanies science especially in controversial and still under development areas an...
Finitary and Infinitary Mathematics, the Possibility of Possibilities and the Definition of Probabilities.
many-minds quantum theory finitary and infinitary mathematics
<
2008/4/22
Some relations between physics and finitary and infinitary mathematics are explored in the context of a many-minds interpretation of quantum theory. The analogy between mathematical ``existence'' and ...
