SUMMARY:BLOC Philosophy of Physics Graduate Workshop 2024
UID:20260418T215705Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-f5d4878dd-x5n6c
TZID:Europe/London
LOCATION:cotham house\, Bristol\, United Kingdom\, BS6 6JL
DESCRIPTION:<p>On <strong>Friday 13th Dec</strong> University of Bristol will host the third graduate (or within a year of completion) workshop on Philosophy of Physics on behalf of the BLOC (Bristol-London-Oxford-Cambridge) Group. &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Zoom link for online attendance:</p>\n<p>https://bristol-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/3723685373?pwd=bE9oTmNnUUpYT0JoSTM3eGswV3dGQT09</p>\n<p>The idea is to have a relaxed and friendly day with opportunities to meet other grad students working on similar areas as well as present and get feedback on your own work. The workshop will be primarily in person and we expect all speakers to attend in person\, however there will be a hybrid option for those who cannot make it and want to listen to the talks. We welcome submissions from students at any stage (Masters students\, PhD students\, and those who submitted their thesis within the last year) and you do not have to be part of the BLOC universities to apply. Attendance is open to everyone regardless of career stage! &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Schedule:</p>\n<p>09.00: George Hobart - Action Without Reaction: A Contemporary Critique of the Action-Reaction Principle</p>\n<p>09.45: Simone Salzano - Fundamentality and Intertheory Relations in Physics: The Case of Effective Field Theories</p>\n<p>10.30:Break</p>\n<p>11.00: Isaac Wilkins - The Mathematical Project: A Response to Wigner</p>\n<p>11.45: Antonio S&aacute\;ez Mar&iacute\;n - The Philosophy of Energy: Its Place in Physical Theories and Their Intertheoretic Relations"</p>\n<p>12.30: Lunch</p>\n<p>14.00: Veljko Simovic - Constructing a Physics-Specific Theory of Analogy</p>\n<p>14.45: Ufuk Tasdan - Time Reversal Symmetry Transformations in Historical Context</p>\n<p>15.30: Break</p>\n16:00: Beth Terris - Solving the Problem of Empirical Confirmation: Persistence and Identity in Relational Quantum Mechanics\n<p>16.45: Marco Maggiani - The &Lambda\;CDM Model as an Effective Theory and the Problem of Boltzmann Brains</p>\n<p>17.30: Fin</p>
