Hans Jonas: responsabilitá ed eccesso [PDF]
Nowadays, scientific progress seems to have reached such high levels that it can satisfy almost every human demand: mankind apparently has an absolute, unlimited, and sometimes irresponsible power at its disposal. As an opposition to the excesses of a technological civilization, Hans Jonas proposes an ethics based on responsibility, a kind of ...

Ancient Wisdom and the Modern Temper. On the Role of Greek Philosophy and the Jewish Tradition in Hans Jonas’s Philosophical Anthropology [PDF]
The question on the essence of man and his relationship to nature is certainly one of the most important themes in the philosophy of Hans Jonas. One of the ways by which Jonas approaches the issue consists in a comparison between the contemporary ...

El incremento de responsabilidad en la ética medioambiental [PDF]
The main aim of this paper is to address the concept of responsibility in the area of applied environmental ethics. To this end, we analyse the teleologic thought of Hans Jonas for an environmental conception of responsibility and situate this approach ...

Quantum versus Classical Dynamics in Spin Models: Chains, Ladders, and Square Lattices [PDF]
We present a comprehensive comparison of spin and energy dynamics in quantum and classical spin models on different geometries, ranging from one-dimensional chains, over quasi-one-dimensional ladders, to two-dimensional square lattices. Focusing on dynamics at formally infinite temperature, we particularly consider the autocorrelation functions of ...

Throughout his career, Hans Jonas has reflected on the notion of the human soul and on the concept of man being created in God’s image. A careful analysis of his writings reveals that (approximately) from 1968 he changed his perspective on these topics ...

Approach for modeling single branches of meadow orchard trees with 3D point clouds [PDF]
The cultivation of orchard meadows provides an ecological benefit for biodiversity, which is significantly higher than in intensively cultivated orchards. The goal of this research is to create a tree model to automatically determine possible pruning points for stand-alone trees within meadows.

A micromechanical proof-of-principle experiment for measuring the gravitational force of milligram masses [PDF]
This paper addresses a simple question: how small can one make a gravitational source mass and still detect its gravitational coupling to a nearby test mass? We describe an experimental scheme based on micromechanical sensing to observe gravity between milligram-scale source masses, thereby improving the current smallest source mass values by three ...
