Identity and uncertainty in Everett's multiverse [PDF]
, 2008 In the current debate on the concept of probability in the Everett interpretation of quantum mechanics Saunders and Wallace argue for a notion of pre-measurement uncertainty whilst Greaves and Myrvold attempt to do without uncertainty altogether.

Quantum Reports, 2023 The 2022 Tel Aviv conference on the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics highlighted many differences between theorists. A very significant dichotomy is between Everettian fission (splitting) and Saunders–Wallace–Wilson divergence. For fission,

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.Background Hunger has established detrimental impacts on physical health, with emerging evidence indicating negative impacts on mental health. However, there is a pronounced knowledge gap outside high‐income settings and for adolescents. Previous research also provides differing estimates of hunger's impacts, potentially underpinned by a wide range of ...

BiomoleculesCellular quiescence is operationally defined as a temporary and reversible cessation of proliferation. This state encompasses a wide range of physiological situations since most cells, from microbes to cells composing complex tissues, spend most of their lives non-dividing, waiting for signals to reproliferate.

Testability and Epistemic Shifts in Modern Cosmology [PDF]
, 2012 During the last decade new developments in theoretical and speculative cosmology have reopened the old discussion of cosmology’s scientific status and the more general question of the demarcation between science and non-science. The multiverse hypothesis,

Can an Eternal Life Start From the Minimal Fine-Tuning for Intelligence? [PDF]
Философия и космология, 2016 Since modern physicists made more and more advances in precisely measuring the fundamental constants in nature, cosmologists have been confronted with this problem: how do we declare that nature’s constants are fine-tuned for the emergence of life?

Journal of Marriage and Family, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective This study examines the link between physical attractiveness and partnership outcomes among a group of young male refugees, drawing on Social Exchange Theory, which posits that individuals exchange valued traits—such as attractiveness—for higher status in other domains.

Life, but Not as We Know It: Why Fine‐Tuning Arguments Fail
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Definitions of “life” and theories of life are systematically neglected in arguments for and from fine‐tuning. Despite claims to be neutral about the definition of “life,” fine‐tuning arguments generally presuppose that life requires a form of structural complexity only afforded by physicochemical complexity of the sort with which we are ...
