Contrary to claims about the irrelevance of philosophy for science, I argue that has had, and still has, far more influence on physics than is commonly assumed. maintain current anti-philosophical ideology had damaging effects fertility science. also suggest recent important empirical results, such as detection Higgs particle gravitational waves, failure detect supersymmetry where many expected...

Medical physics is now a mature profession. A few years ago, my country’s scientific medical physics organization, the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM), celebrated its 50th anniversary with all the pomp and hoopla befitting a golden anniversary. Medical physics as a recognized profession is even older than 50 years, having predated the formation of the AAPM by perhaps 20 to...

The present study aimed to explore how nominalization is manifested in a sample of Physics and Applied Linguistics research articles (RAs), representing hard and soft sciences respectively. To this end, 60 RAs from discipline-related professional journals were randomly selected and analyzed in light of Halliday and Matthiessen’s (1999) taxonomy of nominalization. Comparing the normalized freque...

Petro physics, rock physics and multi-attribute analysis have been employed in an integrated approach to delineate porosity variation across Tamag Field of Niger Delta Basin. Gamma and resistivity logs were employed to identify sand bodies and correlated across the field. Petro physical analysis was undertaken. Rock physics modelling and multi-attribute analysis were carried out. Two hydrocarbo...
