Theoretical construction in physics – The role of Leibniz for Weyl's ‘Philosophie der Mathematik und Naturwissenschaft’

This paper aims at closing a gap in recent Weyl research by investigating the role played by Leibniz for the development and consolidation of Weyl's notion of theoretical (symbolic) construction. For Weyl, just as for Leibniz, mathematics was not simply an accompanying tool when doing physics—for him it meant the ability to engage in well-guided speculations about a general framework of reality and experience. The paper first introduces some of the background of Weyl's notion of theoretical construction and then discusses particular Leibnizian inheritances in Weyl's ‘Philosophie der Mathematik und Naturwissenschaft’, such as the general appreciation of the principles of sufficient reason and of continuity. Afterwards the paper focuses on three themes: first, Leibniz's primary quality phenomenalism, which according to Weyl marked the decisive step in realizing that physical qualities are never apprehended directly; second, the conceptual relation between continuity and freedom; and third, Leibniz's notion of ‘expression’, which allows for a certain type of (surrogative) reasoning by structural analogy and which gave rise to Weyl's optimism regarding the scope of theoretical construction.     

New theories for new instruments: Fabrizio Mordente's proportional compass and the genesis of Giordano Bruno's atomist geometry

The aim of this article is to shed light on an understudied aspect of Giordano Bruno's intellectual biography, namely, his career as a mathematical practitioner. Early interpreters, especially, have criticized Bruno's mathematics for being “outdated” or too “concrete”. However, thanks to developments in the study of early modern mathematics and the rediscovery of Bruno's first mathematical writings (four dialogues on Fabrizio's Mordente proportional compass), we are in a position to better understand Bruno's mathematics. In particular, this article aims to reopen the question of whether Bruno anticipated the concept of infinitesimal quantity. It does so by providing an analysis of the dialogues on Mordente's compass and of the historical circumstances under which those dialogues were written.     

基于SEM的高校体育教育学生满意度研究

借助"顾客满意度"理论,构建高校体育教育学生满意度测量量表.运用因子分析理论,对"感知质量"变量进行探索性因子分析,运用参数检验的方法对各变量在性别上的差异性做对比分析,运用结构方程模型的方法,对高校体育教育学生满意度模型中的5个变量进行相关性分析.因子分析结果表明,高校体育教育服务感知质量包括"体育硬件感知""体育教学感知"和"课外体育感知"3个维度;各变量的均值及差异性对比分析结果表明,学生对高校体育教育的"感知质量""感知价值"和"总体满意度"评分偏低,男生评分低于女生;结构方程模型分析结果表明,"体育硬件"对"总体满意度"有直接和间接的影响,"体育教学"通过中介变量"感知价值"对"总体满意度"有间接的影响.     

医疗卫生工作者心理健康水平现状

 为了解医疗卫生工作者心理健康水平的现状，从2017年科技工作者心理状况调查的数据中选取医疗卫生工作者样本1463人，同时抽取其他科技工作者1441人作为对照组。调查结果发现：医疗卫生工作者抑郁风险低于对照组，焦虑和自杀意念与对照组无显著差异，工作倦怠及情感衰竭度显著高于对照组；医疗卫生工作者心理健康群体差异明显，50岁后抑郁和焦虑水平均降低，正高级职称人群的抑郁和焦虑水平均较低。情绪调控方式上，压制组表现出更多的抑郁和焦虑风险；同时，医疗卫生工作者存在睡眠时间不足、运动次数和运动时长不足、工作时长过长的问题；在心理健康服务方面，医疗卫生工作者整体优于对照组。建议改善医疗卫生工作者工作时长和工作压力，倡导健康生活方式，并提高情绪调节能力。

对数非线性薛定谔方程基态解的数值解法

针对对数非线性薛定谔方程，本文构造了一种求基态解的数值解法.该方法首先对原始能量泛函进行正则化处理,然后使用归一化梯度流方法来求正则化后的基态解.在求解的每个时间步我们采用向后欧拉傅里叶谱方法的隐式数值格式,并通过不动点迭代求解. 我们分析了正则化方法的能量误差,并通过数值模拟验证了本文方法的可靠性.     

Coincidence and reproducibility in the EHT black hole experiment

This paper discusses some philosophical aspects related to the recent publication of the experimental results of the 2017 black hole experiment, namely the first image of the supermassive black hole at the center of galaxy M87. In this paper I present a philosophical analysis of the 2017 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) black hole experiment. I first present Hacking's philosophy of experimentation. Hacking gives his taxonomy of elements of laboratory science and distinguishes a list of elements. I show that the EHT experiment conforms to major elements from Hacking's list. I then describe with the help of Galison's Philosophy of the Shadow how the EHT Collaboration created the famous black hole image. Galison outlines three stages for the reconstruction of the black hole image: Socio-Epistemology, Mechanical Objectivity, after which there is an additional Socio-Epistemology stage. I subsequently present my own interpretation of the reconstruction of the black hole image and I discuss model fitting to data. I suggest that the main method used by the EHT Collaboration to assure trust in the results of the EHT experiment is what philosophers call the Argument from Coincidence. I show that using this method for the above purpose is problematic. I present two versions of the Argument from Coincidence: Hacking's Coincidence and Cartwright's Reproducibility by which I analyse the EHT experiment. The same estimation of the mass of the black hole is reproduced in four different procedures. The EHT Collaboration concludes: the value we have converged upon is robust. I analyse the mass measurements of the black hole with the help of Cartwright's notion of robustness. I show that the EHT Collaboration construe Coincidence/Reproducibility as Technological Agnosticism and I contrast this interpretation with van Fraassen's scientific agnosticism.     

矩阵力学与波动力学等价性证明的历史分析

矩阵力学和波动力学是量子力学的两种早期形态。前者由海森堡、约当、玻恩提出,后者由薛定谔提出。1926年,薛定谔给出二者之间等价性的证明。随后,泡利、狄拉克、约当、冯·诺伊曼等人或是为等价性证明给出新的版本,或是给出了间接的论证。这两种力学现在已被表述为海森堡绘景和薛定谔绘景,而数学家近来又从量子化问题出发对其等价性做出新的考察。本文对此历史过程进行回顾分析,以评估等价性问题对物理发展的意义。
