The Metaphysics of Opacity

open access: yesPhilosophers' Imprint, 2023
This paper examines the logical and metaphysical consequences of denying Leibniz's Law, the principle that if t1= t2, then φ(t1) if and only if φ(t2). Recently, Caie, Goodman, and Lederman (2020) and Bacon and Russell (2019) have proposed sophisticated logical systems permitting violations of Leibniz's Law.

Clinical AI: opacity, accountability, responsibility and liability

open access: yesAi & Society, 2020
The aim of this literature review was to compose a narrative review supported by a systematic approach to critically identify and examine concerns about accountability and the allocation of responsibility and legal liability as applied to the clinician ...

Systematic opacity calculations for kilonovae [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Coalescence of neutron stars (NSs) gives rise to kilonova, thermal emission powered by radioactive decays of freshly synthesized r-process nuclei. Although observational properties are largely affected by bound–bound opacities of r-process elements ...

The Politics of Bank Opacity

open access: yesJournal of Accounting & Economics, 2021
The distribution of power in the political system shapes the financial reporting opacity of banks. Specifically, banks located in states with senators on the Senate Banking Committee (BC senators) have greater abnormal loan loss provisions than banks in ...

Atomic opacities [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1994
Let Iv(r, θ) be the intensity of radiation of frequency v, at a distance r from the centre of a star and in a direction making an angle θ to the outward normal. In a plane-parallel approximation the equation of radiative transfer is where 𝛋v is the opacity and jv the emissivity. The net outward flux of radiant energy is

Invisible excess of sense in social interaction.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
The question of visibility and invisibility in social understanding is examined here. First, the phenomenological account of expressive phenomena and key ideas of the participatory sense-making theory are presented with regard to the issue of visibility.

A phenomenologically oriented account of the phenomenon of aspectuality in propositional attitudes

open access: yesPhenomenology and Mind, 2016
My main concern in this paper is to provide an account of the aspectuality of propositional attitudes. After having made the negative point that aspectuality cannot be accounted for in purely semantic terms, I shall maintain that what accounts for ...

Large Ly α opacity fluctuations and low CMB τ in models of late reionization with large islands of neutral hydrogen extending to z < 5.5 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2018
High-redshift QSO spectra show large spatial fluctuations in the Ly-alpha opacity of the intergalactic medium on surprisingly large scales at z>~5.5. We present a radiative transfer simulation of cosmic reionization driven by galaxies that reproduces ...

News from the opacity consortium OPAC [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The international OPAC consortium (see list below) was formed three years ago. It is composed of astrophysicists, plasma physicists and experimentalists from different laboratoriesb. This consortium examines specific opacity calculations used in stellar physics.
