l‐threo‐d‐galacto‐Octitol: a curious non‐classical order–disorder polytype with an 88 Å axis

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section B, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 352-359, June 2026.
The sugar alcohol l‐threo‐d‐galacto‐octitol crystallizes in a structure with P43212 pseudo‐symmetry and a highly elongated unit cell (c ≈ 88 Å). In distinct layers of the structure, symmetry is broken by an asymmetric hydrogen‐bonding network leading to polytypism, which is discussed in the framework of order–disorder theory.GalC8 [l‐threo‐d‐galacto ...

A Defense of Scientific Platonism without Metaphysical Presuppositions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
From the Platonistic standpoint, mathematical edifices form an immaterial, unchanging, and eternal world that exists independently of human thought. By extension, “scientific Platonism” says that directly mathematizable physical phenomena – in other ...

Musical Mereology

open access: yesPacific Philosophical Quarterly, Volume 107, Issue 2, Page 58-73, June 2026.
ABSTRACT I develop an axiomatic system of mereology that accounts for the ways in which musical works can be said to have parts. I distinguish two fundamental modes of composition that musical works exhibit: successive composition, whereby sound events are concatenated in time, and simultaneous composition, whereby sound events occur at the same time ...
