The purpose of this paper is to show that the Lorentz contraction of a rod is possible only if the rod’s world path is a real four-dimensional object. This result demonstrates that special relativity ...
Classically, a gauge potential was merely a convenient device for generating a corresponding gauge field. Quantum-mechanically, a gauge potential lays claim to independent status as a further feature ...
PROBABILISTIC EVENTS AND PHYSICAL REALITY: A COMPLETE ALGEBRA OF PROBABILITY
Probability foundations random events
2008/4/22
This contribution derives from a rather extensive study on the foundations of probability. We start by discussing critically the two main models of the random event in Probability Theory and cast ligh...
Reality, measurement and locality in Quantum Field Theory
Quantum Field Theory Standard Model Correlations Locality
2008/4/22
It is currently believed that the local causality of Quantum Field
Theory (QFT) is destroyed by the measurement process. This belief
is also based on the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox and on...
Scientific realism is the view that the aim of science is to produce true or approximately true theories about nature. It is a view which not only is shared by many philosophers but also by scientists...
Special Relativity, Time, Probabilism, and Ultimate Reality
Special relativity time spacetime quantum theory
2008/4/21
McTaggart distinguished two conceptions of time: the A-series, according to which events are either past, present or future; and the B-series, according to which events are merely earlier or later tha...
The EPR experiment: A paradox-free definition of reality
EPR experiment measurement problem
2008/4/21
The paradoxes of the EPR experiment with two particles are shown to originate in the implicit assumption that the particles are always located in the classical space. There exists a substitute for thi...
The relativity of inertia and reality of nothing
relativity Mach's principle Einstein inertia
2008/4/21
The determination of inertia by matter is looked at in general relativity, where inertia can be represented by affine or projective structure. The matter tensor T seems to underdetermine affine struct...
The Universal Organisation Principle as Ultimate Reality and Meaning
nature of the Universe matter and consciousness
2008/4/21
It is pointed out that the different concepts of the Universe serve as an
ultimate basis determining the frames of consciousness. A unified concept
of the Universe is explored which includes conscio...
Contrary to the informed consensus, time travel implies spontaneity (as distinct from chance) so that time travel can only be of the second kind.
Modeling Reality

2008/4/15
My aim in this paper is to articulate an account of scientific modeling that reconciles pluralism about modeling with a modest form of scientific realism. The central claim of this approach is that th...
Handedness, parity violation, and the reality of space
incongruent counterparts parity violation
2008/4/14
In the first part of this paper a relational account of incongruent counterparts is defended against an argument due to Kant. I then consider a more recent attack on such an account, due to John Earma...
We propose a definition of physical objects that aims to clarify some interpretational issues in quantum mechanics. We claim that the transformations generated by the objective properties of a physica...
Computational Models and Virtual Reality New Perspectives of Research in Chemistry
computational model computer network visualization virtual reality
2008/4/7
Molecular models are typical topics of chemical research depending on the technical standards of observation, computation, and representation. Mathematically, molecular structures have been represente...
