Kant’s Neglected Objection to the Ontological Argument [PDF]
, 2014 This paper argues that Kant’s most famous objection to the ontological argument -- that existence is not a real predicate -- is not, in fact, his most effective objection, and that his ”neglected objection’ to the argument deserves to be better known. It

Antileishmanial Activities of Carvacrol Nanoencapsulate in Biopolymeric Nanoparticles
Chemistry &Biodiversity, Accepted Article.Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a neglected parasitic disease, and the first‐line treatments for VL include drugs that exhibit serious toxicological issues. In this sense, new molecules are sought for VL treatment, such as Carvacrol (Car), a phenolic monoterpene that has shown strong activity against Leishmania spp.

Dimensionalidade do espaço ou da extensão: nota sobre a contribuição do jovem Kant [PDF]
Tempo Brasileiro v. 189/190, pp. 37-47 (2012), 2014 In this article, we present new comments to the article On Kant's First Insight Into The Problem of Space Dimensionality and Its Physical Foundations. In particular, we discuss how the space concept is designed in the first writing of Kant. In this work, dated 1747, the young Kant proposes to discuss how we can justify the three-dimensionality of space

Finding Linear Dependencies in Integration-By-Parts Equations: A Monte Carlo Approach [PDF]
, 2013 The reduction of a large number of scalar integrals to a small set of master integrals via Laporta's algorithm is common practice in multi-loop calculations. It is also a major bottleneck in terms of running time and memory consumption. It involves solving a large set of linear equations where many of the equations are linearly dependent.

Kant's apathology of compassion [PDF]
, 2014 In his critical and his later work, Kant recommends apathy to the moral agent faced with pathological phenomena. Notoriously, Kant even rejects compassion (Mitleiden) as pathological. A deconstruction of Kant's 'apathology', i.e.

In whose mind is Mathematics an "a priori cognition"? [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 According to the philosopher Kant, Mathematics is an "a priori cognition". Kant's assumption, together with the unsolvability of Hilbert's 10th problem, implies an astonishing result.

Sublating Kant and the Old Metaphysics: A Reading of the Transition from Being to Essence in Hegel's Logic [PDF]
, 1998 Kant’s “transcendental” or “critical” philosophy is an instance of what can be called the “critique of immediacy.” As part of his critical project, Kant argues that one cannot merely assume that there is a reestablished harmony between thought and being.

Methyl orange sorption on octadecylamine-modified iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles
Chimica Techno ActaThis study investigates the sorption of 2-methyl orange dye onto octadecylamine-modified iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (ODA-IONPs). The synthesized ODA-IONPs exhibit remarkable sorption capacity, reaching 800 mg/g at the nanoparticle concentrations ...
