Sentences with phrase «subatomic events»

Such a view might help interpret the «smeared - out» character of atomic and subatomic events and explain some supraluminal relationships even better than suggestions made here that the)» may result from God's mediation.

There are certainly some features of human subjectivity that can not plausibly be attributed to subatomic events.

If both human occasions of experience and subatomic events are best understood as syntheses of prehensions of other events, then their relation to one another is not as puzzling as has been supposed in the modern epoch.

Nevertheless, process thinkers in general propose that anything actual at all — subatomic events, amoebic experience, human experience — has some capacity for novelty, at no matter how rudimentary, even negligible a level.

There is little or no direct connection between the subjectivity of the molecular or subatomic events that make up the computer and the value it has for me.

Some think that, indeed, the subjectivity resides only in the subatomic events of which molecules are ultimately constituted.

As such they would be instances of, rather than exceptions to, the very kind of experiential activity that occurs in all living things and, so process thinkers speculate, in all existents, even subatomic events.

From Whitehead's point of view, at least, evolutionary thought requires that there be continuity from the simplest subatomic event to the most complex human experience.

A pair of physicists announced the discovery of a subatomic event so powerful that the researchers wondered if it was too dangerous to make public.

Not exact matches

The miracle of life is but a low probability event, so low that we throw up our hands and say well given enough billions of years and billions of random collisions of subatomic particles anything can happen.

Whitehead's ontological principle implies that everything is an actual entity (in the strictest sense of the word) or combination of actual entities: both mental experiences and events on the subatomic level are actual entities.

Also, it seems more reasonable to think of these periodic events as aggregate events which are the outcome of coordinated activities of constituent occasions than to think of them as acts of single individuals (although Whitehead does identify subatomic pulses with single actual occasions).

In PR he identifies subatomic occasions with events which are only millionths of a second in duration.

The analysis of the subatomic entities leads to quanta of energy that are much better described as energy - events than as substances.

The issue that was posed above was whether the exhaustive analysis of tables into subatomic entities yields tiny substances with attributes, or instead, events in relation.

But what about unitary nonhuman events, for example, those at the subatomic level?

Either the relation between successive events in the subatomic world is analogous to the relations we experience, or we have no way of thinking of them at all.

The implication of the new subatomic physics was that certainty was replaced by probability, or the notion of tendencies rather than absolutes: «we can never predict an atomic event with certainty; we can only predict the likelihood of its happening»... This directly contradicts the mechanistic model we explored above, and it implies that a subject such as normal birth needs to be looked at as a whole rather than its parts...»

Energetic events at the subatomic level are measured in megaelectronvolts (MeV), and when two bottom quarks fuse, the physicists found, they produce a whopping 138 MeV.

A major criticism of Russell's view of uncertainty as God's tool for shaping the world is that quantum events usually play out only on the subatomic level.

Today some of the best minds in physics are fixated on the event horizon, pondering what would happen to hypothetical astronauts and subatomic particles upon reaching the precipice of a black hole.

These particles are high - energy neutrinos: subatomic hints of apocalyptic events occurring millions of light years away.

Itforms when a massive object implodes and shrinks below a criticalcircumference, called the event horizon, and then keeps on implodinguntil all that mass is concentrated in a singularity — a point far, farsmaller than a subatomic particle.

These turbulent events also send out a burst of solar wind — energetic subatomic particles — that strikes Earth's magnetic field within 21 hours, creating a geomagnetic storm.

One of the potentially lethal menaces of space travel comes from being bombarded with energized subatomic particles, expelled from solar flares and events such as supernovas.

Before crossing the point of no return (the event horizon), this material generates huge amounts of electromagnetic radiation and, in the case of quasars, blasts out two jets of subatomic particles that travel in opposite directions at nearly the speed of light.
