PsychologyDeterminism Determinism including every human decision and action, is the inevitable and necessary consequence of antecedent states of affairs. Determinism is a modern name for Democritus’…
PhysicsCausal Closure Causal Closure is referred to as the ‘Completeness of Physics’. For physics to be causally closed, all physical events must be due to physical causes.…
PhysicsCausality in Physics Causality in Physics is the continuity of the cause-effect connection. It is never broken, it extends eternally from one link to another. It means that…
PhysicsArrow of Time Arrow of Time is the one-way direction of increasing entropy required by the second law of thermodynamics. This is also known as the “thermodynamic arrow.”…
PhilosophyAnthropic Principle Anthropic Principle is well known that our existence in this universe depends on numerous cosmological constants and parameters whose numerical values must fall within a…
PhysicsPhilosophy of Physics Philosophy of Physics is less an academic discipline—though it is that—than an intellectual frontier across which theoretical physics and modern Western philosophy have been informing.…

PhysicsAbsolute Time and Space Absolute Time and Space is owed to individuals like Sir Isaac Newton, a man whose theories came to form the basis of modern physics. Though…
PhysicsOscillator Linewidth Oscillator Linewidth is a measure of the width of the band of frequencies of radiation emitted or absorbed in an atomic or molecular transition. The…
PhysicsMultiple-Prism Dispersion Theory Multiple-Prism Dispersion Theory is extended to enable evaluation of the overall outward and return pass dispersion of multiple-prism-grating combinations. It was given by Newton in…
PhysicsBeam Divergence Beam Divergence of a laser beam is a measure for how fast the beam expands far from the beam waist. Beams with very small divergence,…
