Nomic Structure and Reduction
Sean Gryb, Karim P. Y. Thébault
The canonical formulation of physical theories with irregular nomic structure is as constrained Hamiltonian theories within which ill-posedness of the equations of motion is connec…
What can bouncing oil droplets tell us about quantum mechanics?
Peter W. Evans, Karim P. Y. Thèbault
A recent series of experiments have demonstrated that a classical fluid mechanical system, constituted by an oil droplet bouncing on a vibrating fluid surface, can be induced to di…
On the Universality of Hawking Radiation
Sean Gryb, Patricia Palacios, Karim Thébault
A physically consistent semi-classical treatment of black holes requires universality arguments to deal with the `trans-Planckian' problem where quantum spacetime effects appear to…
On the Empirical Consequences of the AdS/CFT Duality
Radin Dardashti, Richard Dawid, Sean Gryb +1
We provide an analysis of the empirical consequences of the AdS/CFT duality with reference to the application of the duality in a fundamental theory, effective theory and instrumen…
Hawking Radiation and Analogue Experiments: A Bayesian Analysis
Radin Dardashti, Stephan Hartmann, Karim P. Y. Thébault +1
We present a Bayesian analysis of the epistemology of analogue experiments with particular reference to Hawking radiation. First, we prove that such experiments can be confirmatory…
