Intuition and the Axiomatic Method

Emily Carson, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the relation of logic and intuition in Kant's philosophy of science, particularly geometry, and present a re-assessment of the relation between logic and intuitions in Hilbert's Foundation of Physics.

The Affine Connexion in Physical Field Theories

TL;DR: In this article, the loss of connexion by general invariance is discussed, where the essential physical entities are mathematically described as invariants, vectors, tensors, which are then replaced by the notion of general invariants.

Upper bounds on the photon mass

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of a nonzero photon rest mass can be incorporated into electromagnetism in a simple way using the Proca equations, and two interesting implications regarding the possible existence of a massive photon in nature, i.e., tiny alterations in the known values of both the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron and the gravitational deflection of electromagnetic radiation, are utilized to set upper limits on its mass.

Gravitation and general relativity at King’s College London

TL;DR: In this paper, the study of gravitation and general relativity at King's College London (KCL) has been studied since the nineteenth century, but its main focus is on the quarter of a century beginning in 1955.

Phenomenological linear theory of gravitation: Part III: Interaction with the spinning electron

TL;DR: In this article, a Lorentz-covariant, linear theory of gravitation interacting with the electromagnetic field as well as with matter was developed in two preceding papers, in which matter was treated as consisting of classical point masses.
