This philosophy of science conference focuses on the intricate foundational relationship between statistical physics and thermodynamics, and in general on reduction and inter-theoretical relationships in physics. The first day of the conference puts Patricia Palacios’ recent book Emergence and Reduction in Physics(Cambridge University Press, 2022) in the limelight, while the second day features critical reflections on philosophical issues regarding Boltzmannian vs Gibbsian approaches to statistical mechanics, modeling macroscopic irreversibility on the microscopic level, reductionist approaches to the arrow of time, inter-theoretical relationships between different theories of physics, and ontological reduction in physics.
