Mental time travel research has given rise to an ongoing debate between causal and simulation theories of memory, which has, in turn, triggered a debate between continuist and discontinuist views of the relationship between remembering experienced past events and imagining possible future events.

This paper is a survey of some results on travel time tomography. If the anisotropic index of refraction of a medium can be determined by measuring the travel times of waves going through the medium can be recast as geometry problems whose linearization versions lead to tensor tomography. The question is whether one can determine a symmetric two-tensor

On Travelling Backward in Time
Synthese, 1972In his recent article ‘It Ain’t Necessarily So’, Hilary Putnam (1962, p. 668) remarks that “in the last few years I have been amused and irritated by the spate of articles proving that time travel is a ‘conceptual impossibility’.”

The Caracol Time Travel Project
The Journal of Visualization and Computer Animation, 2001AbstractVirtual drama is based on the use of a shareable virtual world as a stage setting, with avatars controlled by actors and audience members. The Caracol Time Travel Project was an experiment in the use of virtual drama for learning about archaeology.

Philosophy, 1999
Talk about time travel is puzzling even if it isn't obviously contradictory. Philosophers however are divided about whether time travel involves empirical paradox or some deeper metaphysical incoherence. It is suggested that time travel requires a Parmenidean four-dimensionalist metaphysical conception of the world in time.

Travel time and working time: What business travellers do when they travel, and why
Time and Society, 2012 Many business travellers today use some of their travel time as working time. However, interviews with frequent business travellers and travel managers in Sweden show that individual travellers differ very much in their attitudes and practices regarding ...

The prospect of a machine in which one could be transported through time is no longer mere fantasy, having become in this century the subject of serious scientific and philosophical debate. From Einstein’s special theory of relativity we have learned that a form of time travel into the future may be accomplished by moving quickly, and therefore ageing ...
