Philosophia - Salmon (1970) was the first to speak explicitly of paradoxes of kinematics. In this short note I introduce a new class of infinity puzzles. Following natural terminology, they should... 相似文献

In Pérez Laraudogoitia (1996), I introduced a simple example of a supertask that involved the possibility of spontaneous self-excitation
and, therefore, of a particularly interesting form of indeterminism in classical dynamics. Alper and Bridger (1998) criticised
(among other things) this result. In the present article, I answer their criticisms. In what follows I assume familiarity
both with Pérez Laraudogoitia (1996) and Alper and Bridger’s subsequent article.

The paper shows a new example of nonuniqueness of the solutionto Newtonian equations of motion for infinite gravitational systems. Unlike otherexamples, the gravitational field presents no singularity, nor are the non-gravitational forcesintroduced in the model singular (in particular, there are no collisions). The result is also ofinterest because it points to an interesting limitation of the elementary (Newtonian) formulationof classical mechanics. 相似文献

In this paper a simple model in particle dynamics of a well-known supertask is constructed (the supertask was introduced by
Max Black some years ago). As a consequence, a new and simple result about creation ex nihilo of particles can be proved compatible
with classical dynamics. This result cannot be avoided by imposing boundary conditions at spatial infinity, and therefore
is really new in the literature. It follows that there is no reason why even a world of rigid spheres should be eternal, as
has been erroneously assumed, especially since the time of Newton.

Avoiding Infinite Masses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The examples of dynamic supertasks analyzed to date in the philosophical literature, in which both determinism and the classical
laws of conservation of energy and momentum are violated, all share the important limitation of requiring material systems
of infinite mass. This paper demonstrates that this limitation is not necessary. This has important consequences for the scope
and meaning of such violations. 相似文献

A detailed consideration of the Trojan fly supertask reveals certain unsuspected characteristics relating to determinism and causation. I propose here a solution to the new difficulty in terms of bare dispositions. 相似文献

In “The Train Paradox”(Philosophia (2006) 34: 437–438) Gwiazda proposes the use of the relativity of simultaneity to formulate a new paradox. My purpose here is to show that there is no Train Paradox in Gwiazda’s sense. 相似文献

The paper presents a new paradox in the sphere of the classical mechanics of infinite systems. The paradox, which implies the existence of an interaction at a distance as well as gravitation, would seem to require an extension of the concept of mechanical explanation. However, it is not clear how such an extension might be carried out. 相似文献
