Download or read book Petit voyage dans le monde des quanta written by Étienne Klein and published by Flammarion. This book was released on 2016-09-07T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 1905 apparaîssait une nouvelle physique qui allait révolutionner la façon de décrire la matière et ses interactions : la physique quantique. Avec elle s’ouvraient les portes d’un monde qui n’obéit pas aux lois de la physique classique : l’infiniment petit, avec ses atomes et ses particules. Elle obligea ses pères fondateurs, Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg et Schrödinger notamment, à rediscuter le déterminisme et les critères de réalité de la physique classique. Pour la première fois dans l’histoire des sciences, une discipline exigeait un travail d’interprétation afin d’être comprise et appliquée. La physique quantique intrigue, fascine, exaspère parfois. Elle demeure pourtant méconnue : on l’invoque pour cautionner tel phénomène étrange, mais on néglige d’en décrire les principes fondamentaux. Quels sont ces principes, qui trouvent des applications toujours plus fascinantes, du laser à la téléportation ? D’où provient l’incroyable efficacité de la physique quantique ?

Book excerpt: En 1905 apparaissait une nouvelle physique, qui allait révolutionner la façon de décrire la matière et ses interactions : la physique quantique. Avec elle s'ouvraient les portes d'un monde qui n'obéit pas aux lois de la physique classique : l'infiniment petit, avec ses atomes et ses particules. Elle obligea ses pères fondateurs, Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg et Schrödinger notamment, à rediscuter le déterminisme et les critères de réalité de la physique classique, ainsi que la traditionnelle séparation entre observateur et objet observé. Pour la première fois dans l'histoire des sciences, une discipline exigeait même que soit mis en œuvre un travail d'interprétation afin d'être comprise et appliquée : quelle sorte de réalité représente le formalisme quantique ? Aujourd'hui, quel crédit convient-il d'accorder aux diverses interprétations proposées depuis les années 1920 ? La physique quantique ne laisse pas d'intriguer, de fasciner, d'exaspérer parfois. Elle demeure pourtant méconnue, victime de stéréotypes : on l'invoque pour cautionner tel phénomène étrange, mais on néglige d'en décrire les principes fondamentaux. Quels sont ces principes qui trouvent des applications toujours plus fascinantes, du laser à la cryptographie quantique, en passant par la téléportation ? D'où provient cette incroyable efficacité de la physique quantique ?

This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Probabilistic Model of the Genotype/Phenotype Relationship provides a new hypothesis on the relationship between genotype and phenotype.

This idea is developed and discussed using the current knowledge on complex genetic diseases, phenotypic plasticity, canalization and others.

Download or read book Summoned written by Guillevic and published by Parlor Press LLC. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixteenth of the twenty-five major works of Guillevic published by Gallimard since 1942, Summoned (Requis) represents a pivotal moment in his oeuvre and reaffirms his position as an essential and compelling voice in contemporary poetry. A long poem composed of short, lapidary verse that the poet calls quanta, each in itself a miniature poem, Requis distils familiar themes and motifs of the Guillevician universe within an expanded vision encompassing the outer reaches of space. Within this poetic hurly burly at once totalising and fragmented, arboreal and rhizomatic, cadenced and discontinuous, expansive and condensed, there is a summons to bear witness to the human condition while heeding the injunction of ‘notre toucher/De l’illimité’ that seeks to transgress the boundaries of knowledge, to abolish the dichotomies of presence and absence, motion and stillness, word and silence.

Download or read book Lacan and Marx written by Pierre Bruno and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lacan and Marx: The Invention of the Symptom provides an incisive commentary on Lacan’s reading of Marx, mapping the relations between these two vastly influential thinkers. Unlike previous books, Bruno provides a detailed history of Lacan’s reading of Marx and surveys his references to Marx in both his writings and seminars. Examining Lacan’s key argument that Marx "invented the symptom", Bruno shows how Lacan went on to criticize Marx and contrasts Marx’s concept of surplus-value with Lacan’s surplus-enjoyment. Exploring the division between Marxist and psychoanalytic perspectives on social and psychological need and Lacan’s formalisation of the capitalist discourse, the book compares the positions of Althusser, Deleuze and Guattari, and Žižek on the relations between Lacan, Marx and capitalism, using a wide range of cultural examples, from Stevenson’s Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde to Brecht’s Joan Dark and Pierpont Mauler. Through these readings, Bruno also elaborates an extended commentary on Lacan’s central idea of the division of the subject. His focus is not only on showing how we can exit from capitalism but also, and just as importantly, on showing how we can make capitalism exit from us. This book will be of great interest to scholars and readers of Lacan and Marx from across the fields of psychoanalysis, philosophy and political economy, and will also appeal to Lacanian psychoanalysts in clinical practice.

Book excerpt: SCIENCE AND EMPIRES: FROM THE INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM TO THE BOOK Patrick PETITJEAN, Catherine JAMI and Anne Marie MOULIN The International Colloquium "Science and Empires - Historical Studies about Scientific De velopment and European Expansion" is the product of an International Colloquium, "Sciences and Empires - A Comparative History of Scien tific Exchanges: European Expansion and Scientific Development in Asian, African, American and Oceanian Countries". Organized by the REHSEIS group (Research on Epistemology and History of Exact Sciences and Scientific Institutions) of CNRS (National Center for Scientific Research), the colloquium was held from 3 to 6 April 1990 in the UNESCO building in Paris. This colloquium was an idea of Professor Roshdi Rashed who initiated this field of studies in France some years ago, and proposed "Sciences and Empires" as one of the main research programmes for the The project to organize such a colloquium was a bit REHSEIS group. of a gamble. Its subject, reflected in the title "Sciences and Empires", is not a currently-accepted sub-discipline of the history of science; rather, it refers to a set of questions which found autonomy only recently. The terminology was strongly debated by the participants and, as is frequently suggested in this book, awaits fuller clarification.
