Reversing the Arrow of Time
Bryan W Roberts
The arrow of time refers to the curious asymmetry that distinguishes the future from the past. Reversing the Arrow of Time argues that there is an intimate link between the symmetr…
The Gauge Argument: A Noether Reason
Bryan W. Roberts, Henrique Gomes, Jeremy Butterfield
Why is gauge symmetry so important in modern physics, given that one must eliminate it when interpreting what the theory represents? In this paper we discuss the sense in which gau…
Time-energy uncertainty does not create particles
Bryan W. Roberts, Jeremy Butterfield
In this contribution in honour of Paul Busch, we criticise the claims of many expositions that the time-energy uncertainty principle allows both a violation of energy conservation,…
