DESCRIPTION:<p>Philosophy of High Energy Physics (PHEP-2) Workshop Dates: February 15-16\, 2025</p>\n<p>The second Pittsburgh workshop on philosophy of particle and high energy physics will be held at the Center for Philosophy of Science on 15th-16th&nbsp\;February 2025. The theme is construed broadly to include cosmology\, astrophysics\, quantum gravity and quantum field theory insofar as they overlap with issues in high-energy physics.</p>\n<p><strong>Session 1 (Saturday am)</strong><br>Chair: David Wallace</p>\n<p>8am Continental Breakfast</p>\n<p>9am Opening remarks</p>\n<p>9:05am Marian Gilton: &ldquo\;Where counting counts: Defending a particle interpretation of interacting<br>quantum field theory&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>10:10am Michael Miller: &ldquo\;Full precision and its failure&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>11:10am Coffee</p>\n<p>11:30am Lu Chen: &ldquo\;What QFT realism should be like&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>12:15pm Benjamin Feintzeig: &ldquo\;The emergence of localizable particles in the Non-Relativistic Limit in Quantum Field Theory&rdquo\;</p>\n<p><br><em>Lunch: 1pm-3pm (on your own in Pittsburgh)</em></p>\n<p><strong>Session 2 (Saturday pm)</strong><br>Chair: Porter Williams&nbsp\;
