چکیده
Say that metaphysical indeterminacy occurs just when there is a fact such neither it nor its negation obtains. The aim of this work to shed light on the issue whether orthodox quantum mechanics provides any evidence by discussing logical, semantic, and broadly methodological presuppositions debate. I argue dispute amounts verbal disagreement between classical logicians, given Eli Hirsch’s account substantivity; but need not be so if Ted Sider’s naturalness-based substantivity adopted instead. Given latter approach, can anything said in order tip balance either way? Some prima facie reasonable constraints naturalness entail classicist right, world therefore determinate. Nevertheless, are reasons for weakening those constraints, effect remains very much open. Finally, discuss alternative accounts indeterminacy, they unsuitable framing

Metametaphysics, Edited By
If there were anything negative to be said about this book with any plausibility, it would be that it comes behind time. After a period of general rejection of all metaphysics and ontology in early analytic philosophy, over the past four or five decades we have witnessed a radical resurrection of all kinds of metaphysical investigation. Old questions, theses and arguments are renewed nowadays w...
متن کاملFor David Chalmers et al, eds., Metametaphysics, OUP forthcoming The Metaontology of Abstraction
ion as a legitimate form of implicit definition has been authenticated. And it is this, so it may be suggested, that requires the development of satisfactory answers to (M) and (E) and related questions. If it looks as if the truth of abstraction principles may turn on substantial metaphysical hostages, or as if there are special problems about knowing that they are true, or can be stipulated t...
متن کاملConductance in quantum wires by three quantum dots arrays
A noninteracting quantum-dot arrays side coupled to a quantum wire is studied. Transport through the quantum wire is investigated by using a noninteracting Anderson tunneling Hamiltonian. The conductance at zero temperature develops an oscillating band with resonances and antiresonances due to constructive and destructive interference in the ballistic channel, respectively. Moreover, we have fo...
متن کاملQuantum current modeling in nano-transistors with a quantum dot
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) serve as a new class of ‘zero dimensional’ nanomaterial’s in thecarbon class with sizes below 10 nm. As light emitting nanocrystals, QDs are assembled from semiconductormaterials, from the elements in the periodic groups of II-VI, III-V or IV-VI, mainly thanks to impacts of quantum confinement QDs have unique optical properties such as brighter, highly pho...
