How do we judge, objectively, which is the “best” theory? Is there even a unique answer to this question?.The goal of the workshop, and of this book, is to contribute to the development of a meta-theory of spacetime theories. Such a meta-theory would reveal insights about specific spacetime theories by distilling their essential similarities and differences, deliver a framework for a class of theories that could be helpful as a blueprint to build other meta-theories, and provide a higher level viewpoint for judging which theory most accurately describes nature. But rather than drawing a map in broad strokes, the focus is on particularly rich regions in the “space of spacetime theories.”.This work will be of interest to physicists, as well as philosophers and historians of science working with or interested in General Relativity and/or Space, Time and | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | Alternative Theories of Gravitation; General Relativity; Gravitation; Meta-theories of Spacetime Theori | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-3210-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4939-7998-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4939-3210-8Series ISSN 2381-5833 Series E-ISSN 2381-5841 | | issn_series | 2381-5833 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2017 |
