Causality and the arrow of time in process theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The objective of this thesis is to study the concept of causality and its interplay with the arrow of time in quantum process theories and beyond. The framework of process theories is particularly intuitive since it is accompanied by a diagrammatic ...

Regge behavior saves string theory from causality violations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Higher-derivative corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert action are present in bosonic string theory leading to the potential causality violations recently pointed out by Camanho et al.

Distinguishing causality principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We distinguish two sub-types of each of the two causality principles formulated in connection with the Common Cause Principle in Henson (2005) and raise and investigate the problem of logical relations among the resulting four causality principles. Based

Physics and causation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The paper makes a case for there being causation in the form of causal properties or causal structures in the domain of fundamental physics. That case is built in the first place on an interpretation of quantum theory in terms of state reductions so that

Al-Ghazâlî’s Concept of Causality and Quantum Physics: Finding a Point of Relevance

open access: yesTsaqafah, 2022
Al-Ghazâlî views the connection between what is believed to be natural cause and effect is not necessary. For him, God is the Agent in every event. He is the determining factor.

Interpretation in quantum physics as hidden curriculum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Prior research has demonstrated how the realist perspectives of classical physics students can translate into specific beliefs about quantum phenomena when taking an introductory modern physics course.

Hylomorphic Teleology in Aristotle’s Physics II

open access: yesStudia Gilsoniana, 2019
This study draws attention to the ordering of matter and form argued for in Aristotle’s Physics II, 8 (199a30–32). This argument for hylomorphic teleology relies on the presentation of nature earlier in Physics II, 1.

Student perspectives in quantum physics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Introductory courses in classical physics are promoting in students a realist perspective, made up in part by the belief that all physical properties of a system can be simultaneously specified, and thus determined at all future times. Such a perspective
