Physical Reality, Theoretical Physics, and Mathematics—15 Years Later

Institute for Mathematical Physics the Thirring Model 40 Years Later the Thirring Model 40 Years Later ?

Solutions to the Thirring model are constructed in the framework of algebraic quantum eld theory. It is shown that for all positive temperatures there are fermionic solutions only if the coupling constant is = q 2(2n + 1); n 2 N, otherwise solutions are anyons. Diierent anyons (which are uncountably many) live in orthogonal spaces, so the whole Hilbert space becomes non-separable and in each of...

Leibniz and the Foundations of Physics: The Later Years

Indoor radon entry: 30 years later

The paper discusses the results of 30 years of radon indoor entry research. While some progress has been made, many discrepancies between current theories and experimental data still remain. Misconceptions of radon transport mechanisms in homes are analyzed. The role of US Environmental Protection Agency in radon indoor entry research is examined and the agency's policies are criticize...

Information Physics - Towards a New Conception of Physical Reality

The concept of information plays a fundamental role in our everyday experience, but is conspicuously absent in framework of classical physics. Over the last century, quantum theory and a series of other developments in physics and related subjects have brought the concept of information and the interface between an agent and the physical world into increasing prominence. As a result, over the l...

CBCD: 25 years later!

In 1988, a handful of idealists led by Prof. Dr. Henrique Walter Pinotti then Head Professor of Digestive Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, University of São Paulo founded an prestigious organization that today all know, which is the BRAZILIAN COLLEGE OF DIGESTIVE SURGERY CBCD. These selfless whose naes can be seen in Figure 1, are or were university professors committed to the teaching of General ...
