The baseline of GAIA is the study of the formation and evolution of the Milky Way from astrometric and photometric measurements. The mission displays a remarkable versatility in its applications, including a significant impact in fundamental physics. In the following I will try to define the relationship between astrometry and

Computation and Fundamental Physics
The Computer Journal, 2012‘What is computation?” is not mere taxonomy, nor simply an aid in our anthropocentric obsession with explaining our thinking process. Instead it is relevant to some of the deepest questions in the nature of the physics of our universe. Understanding what computation is may be more essential to us than we might have imagined.

Physicalism and Fundamentalism
2020Physicalism is the most parsimonious and elegant view about consciousness. Providing forceful objections to the position is a crucial part of any argument for rival views. Yet in order to criticize it, one has to thoroughly understand the core commitments of this metaphysical doctrine. This is the subject of the chapter at hand.

Physics World, 1990
In between lectures, I was discussing with one of my students the reasons why he was studying physics. The student pointed to the cost of attending the course, and the extra costs involved in terms of time, books and travel, and said that if he considered it in terms of the cost of the course and the likely financial rewards, then he wouldn't bother ...

Fundamentals of Photon Physics
The photon, an abstract concept belonging to a global vacuum, only manifests itself during interaction with matter. Fundamentals of Photon Physics describes the richly faceted, basic theory of photon-matter interaction, selecting a wide number of topics.openaire +1 more source

A core commitment among physicalists is that physics holds some special status among the sciences, that it is fundamental. This paper argues that the most common interpretation of the fundamentality of physics, in terms of the ontological or explanatory completeness of physics, faces several insurmountable challenges.

Almost immediately after its discovery by Marie and Pierre Curie in 1898, radium was used to treat cancer. For years, plesiocurietherapy and interstitial therapy were performed using radium and its daughter element radon. With the advent of nuclear reactors, many new isotopes became available in the 1950s: needles of cobalt 60 (Myers 1948) tantalum-182
