Randomness in quantum mechanics: philosophy, physics and technology.
This progress report covers recent developments in the area of quantum randomness, which is an extraordinarily interdisciplinary area that belongs not only to physics, but also to philosophy, mathematics, computer science, and technology. For this reason the article contains three parts that will be essentially devoted to different aspects of quantum randomness, and even directed, although not ...
متن کاملA Confucian philosophy of medicine and some implications.
Two crucial topics in the philosophy of medicine are the philosophy of nature and philosophical anthropology. In this essay I engage the philosophy of nature by exploring Anne Fagot-Largeault's study of norms in nature as a way of articulating a Confucian philosophy of medicine. I defend the Confucian position as a moderate naturalism.
متن کاملParallels between Quantum Antiferromagnetism and the Strong Interactions
I suggest that the great body of knowledge gained over the past 10 years about simple spin-1/2 quantum quantum antiferromagnets points to a connection between cuprate superconductivity and the strong interactions. The underlying physical idea, which I admit to be highly speculative, is that the phase diagram of such a magnet consists of competing ordered phases regulated by a nearby quantum cri...
متن کاملFusion Physics and Philosophy
The advancement of science and technology normally occurs through evolutionary research and development. These activities and their fruits, knowledge and capabilities, might be very interesting and useful, but they normally do not challenge our overall view of the world. When something revolutionary comes to light, the potential paradigm shift, then we are forced to examine both our knowledge a...
متن کاملPhysics and Philosophy
A winner of the Nobel Prize, Werner Heisenberg was born in 1901 in Wurzberg, Germany. He studied physics at the University of Munich and for his Ph.D. wrote a dissertation on turbulence in fluid streams. Interested in Niels Bohrs account of the planetary atom, Heisenberg studied under Max Born at the University of Gottingen and then, in 1924, went to the Universitets Institut for Teoretisk Fysi...
