Constructive Axiomatics for Spacetime Physics

Autor

Emily Adlam is a philosopher of physics focusing on the foundations of quantum mechanics and the philosophy of time. She did her PhD in theoretical physics at the University of Cambridge, and was a postdoctoral associate at the University of Western Ontario before moving to Chapman University. Niels Linnemann is a philosopher of physics at the University of Geneva. After completing degrees in physics, maths, and philosophy at the Universities of Mÿnster, Oxford, and Cambridge, he earned his doctorate in philosophy under supervision of Christian Wÿthrich at the University on Geneva for his work on theory construction in quantum gravity. His interests beyond the philosophy of spacetime include the fields of scientific discovery and theory construction, as well as that of the metaphysics of sciences. He co-runs an initiative to help make the philosophy of physics more known in German-speaking countries. James Read is an associate professor at the University of Oxford. He studied physics and philosophy at Oxford, and mathematics at Cambridge, before completing a doctorate in philosophy from Oxford in 2018. He works in the philosophy of physics, in particular on the foundations of spacetime theories and symmetries. His work has won various international awards, including the Hanneke Janssen Prize and Clifton Memorial Prize.
