A Critical Study of Relativism: A Feature of Postmodernism

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Islamic Research
In the Western countries, the concept of postmodernism is not new and novel. It is an extension of human inquiry in social issues and problems, new shapes of expressions and new trends of analyses and sensibility.

Regulating Gamete Donation in the U.S.: Ethical, Legal and Social Implications

open access: yesLaws, 2015
This article explores the practice of gamete donation in the U.S. having in mind the larger question of what do we as a society owe children born as a result (donor-conceived children). Do recipient-parents have a duty to tell their donor-conceived child

Comprehensive DFT Analysis of FeSi and RhSi: Structural Stability, Electronic Contrast and Transport‐Optical Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This comprehensive density functional theory analysis investigates the structural, electronic, optical, mechanical, and thermoelectric properties of FeSi, c‐RhSi, and o‐RhSi. Results reveal distinct electronic and optical contrasts among the materials.

Relativism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Relativism is the view that the truth of a sentence is relative both to a context of utterance and to a context of assessment. That the truth of a sentence is relative to a context of utterance is uncontroversial in contemporary semantics.

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

Kuhn's ontological relativism [PDF]

open access: yesScience & Education, 1997
In The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, Thomas S. Kuhn presented a model of scientific development on which science is characterized by periods of unified research intermittently disrupted by revolutionary change of paradigm. Ever since Kuhn first proposed this model of scientific theory change, relativism, in one form or another, has been ...

Quantifying the Impact of Relativistic Precession on Tidal Disruption Event Light Curves

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The tidal field of a black hole can turn a star into a gas stream whose orbit can precess, especially if the a black hole is rapidly spinning. In this work, we investigate the impact of precession on the light curves of tidal disruption events (TDE).

Promoting the Mathematization of Physics: Hermann Minkowski's Draft Presentations of His 1908 “Grundgleichungen” Paper

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
I present and discuss two drafts of remarks prepared by the mathematician Hermann Minkowski (1864–1909). They were composed in December 1907 while preparing his paper on the “Basic Equations of Electromagnetic Processes in Moving Bodies” for publication in the Proceedings of the Göttingen Academy of Sciences.
