2. Black holes: do they exist?

Author

Edward Malec

Subjects
black holes, history of physics, history of black holes, first observations of black holes, present status of black holes, Philosophy (General), B1-5802
Abstract

Black holes entered scientific literature as early as at the end of eighteenth century. They had been known at that time as dark stars, but their concept did not find its way to physics or astronomy, and had been abandoned for more than one hundred years. I shall sketch historical developments and discuss present mathematical and observational status of black holes.

3. Mariana Smoluchowskiego ujęcie zasady przyczynowości w badaniach ruchów Browna

Author

Subjects
causality principle, Brownian motion, history of physics, philosophy of science, Philosophy (General), B1-5802
Abstract

Marian Smoluchowski solved the greatest scientific problem of his time. It was the explanation of the phenomenon of the Brownian motion. In the article, I show that Smoluchowski in fact in this explanation used an ontological interpretation of the causality principle, although in his writings he applied it also in the epistemological interpretation. This is understandable because in the scientific practice some kinds of ontological commitment are required.

Abstract

Der Liber de triplici motu ist ein Werk von Alvarus Thomas aus dem Jahr 1509. Das Buch repr��sentiert einen letzten H��hepunkt der scholastischen Auseinandersetzung mit der aristotelischen Bewegungslehre vor der Entstehung der klassischen Mechanik. Von zukunftsweisender Bedeutung ist darin die mathematische Proportionslehre und die damit verbundene Quantifizierung von naturphilosophischen Qualit��ten nach den Methoden der Oxforder Kalkulatoren wie zum Beispiel die Quantifizierung der Geschwindigkeit einer Bewegung. ���Alvarus Thomas und sein Liber de triplici motu Band I: Naturphilosophie an der Pariser Artistenfakult��t��� arbeitet aus dem Inhalt und der Strukturierung des Werks sowie dem Leben von Alvarus Thomas die Zusammenh��nge zwischen Formen und Inhalten der Wissensvermittlung und Wissensproduktion, zwischen wissenschaftlicher Forschung und wissenschaftlicher Sozialisation f��r das fr��he 16. Jahrhundert heraus. Dieser erste Band zu Alvarus Thomas und seinem Liber de triplici motu bietet zudem einen strukturierten Abriss des Werks, einen Glossar zum mathematischen und naturphilosophischen Vokabular sowie weiteres bibliographisches Material., The Liber de triplici motu by Alvarus Thomas was published in 1509. The book represents the scholastic discussions about Aristotelean theory on movement shortly before the construction of classical mechanics. It set a trend towards using more sophisticated proportion theory within quantifying qualities according to the methods of the Oxford Calculators, e.g. quantifying the velocity of a motion. ���Alvarus Thomas and his Liber de triplici motu. Volume I: Natural philosophy at the faculty of arts in Paris��� presents a biography of Alvarus Thomas and reveals the connections between the content, form and structure of Early Modern education as well as between science and the socialization of the scientific community of his time. In addition, the study presents appendices like a shortened translation of the Liber de triplici motu, a glossary of the technical terms of the Early Modern motion theory, and bibliographical material to encourage further studies on the subject.
