Determinism and Causation Examples
TL;DR: The authors show that for deterministic examples, the conditional preemptive situation is either (i)vacuously true, (ii)contradictory, or (iii) implies indeterminism.

Connections Between Special Relativity, Charge Conservation, and Quantum Mechanics
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that charge may be a manifestation of momentum in the new fourth direction, which implies that charge conservation is a form of momentum conservation, and that all elementary free particles can be described in the same manner as photons, by means of a wave equation.
Article Special Relativity and Perception: The Singular Time of Psychology and Physics
TL;DR: The Special Theory of Relativity holds sway as a theory of time due to its apparently successful predictive structure regarding time-related phenomena such as the increased life spans of mesons or retarded clocks on jets circling the globe, and due to the relativization of simultaneity intrinsic to this theoretical structure as mentioned in this paper.

Is time dilation physically observable
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the circular arc swept out by the angular displacement of a clock indicator measuring time is a Lorentz invariant, representing universal time, and the concepts of time dilation and transverse Doppler effect are accordingly not physically observable.

The Mathematics of Philosophy: A Brief Review of My Work
TL;DR: For example, this paper reviewed the mathematics of the philosophy of science and argued that Agassi's basic subjectivism is not worth defending directly and that it would be more useful to defend it indirectly by reviewing my work on the mathematics.
