Sleeping Beauty on Monty Hall
Inspired by the Monty Hall Problem and a popular simple solution to it, we present a number of game-show puzzles that are analogous to the notorious Sleeping Beauty Problem (and variations on it), but much easier to solve. We replace the awakenings of Sleeping Beauty by contestants on a game show, like Monty Hall’s, and increase the number of awakenings/contestants in the same way that the number of doors in the Monty Hall Problem is increased to…
How did Lorentz find his theorem of corresponding states
The trouble with orbits
The twins and the bucket
From canonical transformations to transformation theory, 1926–1927
Drawing the line between kinematics and dynamics in special relativity
Pascual Jordan's resolution of the conundrum of the wave-particle duality of light
Presentism and Relativity
In this critical notice we argue against William Craig's recent attempt to reconcile presentism (roughly, the view that only the present is real) with relativity theory. Craig's defense of his position boils down to endorsing a ‘neo‐Lorentzian interpretation’ of special relativity. We contend that his reconstruction of Lorentz's theory and its historical development is fatally flawed and that his arguments for reviving this theory fail on many co…
