5. Experiment In Physics Entry from the Stanford Encyclopedia. http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/physics-experiment/

version history HOW TO CITE THIS ENTRY Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy A B C D ... Z content revised OCT Experiment in Physics Physics, and natural science in general, is a reasonable enterprise based on valid experimental evidence, criticism, and rational discussion. It provides us with knowledge of the physical world, and it is experiment that provides the evidence that grounds this knowledge. Experiment plays many roles in science. One of its important roles is to test theories and to provide the basis for scientific knowledge. It can also call for a new theory, either by showing that an accepted theory is incorrect, or by exhibiting a new phenomenon that is in need of explanation. Experiment can provide hints toward the structure or mathematical form of a theory and it can provide evidence for the existence of the entities involved in our theories. Finally, it may also have a life of its own, independent of theory. Scientists may investigate a phenomenon just because it looks interesting. Such experiments may provide evidence for a future theory to explain. [Examples of these different roles will be presented below.] As we shall see below, a single experiment may play several of these roles at once. If experiment is to play these important roles in science then we must have good reasons to believe experimental results, for science is a fallible enterprise. Theoretical calculations, experimental results, or the comparison between experiment and theory may all be wrong. Science is more complex than "The scientist proposes, Nature disposes." It may not always be clear what the scientist is proposing. Theories often need to be articulated and clarified. It also may not be clear how Nature is disposing. Experiments may not always give clear-cut results, and may even disagree for a time.

MUSIC AND PHYSICS By the music passions enjoy themselves... Friedrich Nietzsche Visitors (Sep 2000) [VERSION EN FRANCAIS] [VERSION EN ESPANOL] The object of this document is to be able to clarify from a epistemologic point of view an art which a priori is conceived only subjectively. The music is an art to combine the sounds so as to produce an esthetic impression. In addition, physics is a science which has as an aim the study of the general properties of the bodies and the laws which tend to modify their state or their movement without modifying their nature.

19. Centre For Chemical Physics Interests can be broadly classified into five general areas energy deposition, surface science, biological applications, properties of condensed matter and properties of isolated atoms and molecules. http://www.uwo.ca/ccp

Centre for Chemical Physics The Centre for Chemical Physics (CCP) is located at the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, Canada. The Centre’s mandate is to foster and encourage collaborative, interdisciplinary research. Some of the finest research in the physical and mathematical sciences in Canada has been accomplished through our Centre since its inception in 1973. This organization was formed to encourage research in those areas of science, which overlap more than one of the traditional disciplines. Over 48 Faculty Members (along with their research groups) are participants in the Centre for an approximate total of 200 people. They include members who are active in research in the following departments/centres Applied Mathematics / Earth Science / Materials Science / Engineering Science / Chemistry / Biology London Regional Cancer Centre / Robarts Research Institute Although the majority of funding is from The University of Western Ontario, faculty members also contribute a percentage of research grants each year, and corporate sponsorships are encouraged. Of greatest importance in realizing our mandate is the Visiting Fellowship Program, which brings a unique perspective to research at Western. Through this program, the members of the Centre have collaborated with over 120 senior scientists from over 30 countries. These collaborations truly broaden our horizons at a time when research is become increasingly global, increasingly expensive and yet increasingly competitive.
