摘要

在大多数日常物理学中，人们都是在对其他系统进行建模，并且有可能保持主体和客体的暂时分离，或者研究者和被研究的系统的暂时分离。但归根结底，我们是宇宙的一部分。我们在我们所代表的领域中行动的事实可能使我们无法将世界的某些事实或特征作为知识的对象来稳定下来。我认为，这揭示了宇宙是参与性的，并利用效应传播方式的差异来区分经典世界和量子世界。

A Participatory Universe in the Realist Mode: On the Separation of Observational and Agentive Perspectives in Classical and Quantum Mechanics

In most day-to-day physics, one is modelling other systems and it is possible to maintain a provisional separation of subject and object, or of investigator and system being investigated. Ultimately, though, we are part of the universe. The fact that we act in the domain that we are representing can make it impossible to stabilize certain facts or features of the world as objects of knowledge. I’ll suggest that this casts light on the sense in which the universe is participatory and use differences in the way that the effects propagate to distinguish the classical and quantum worlds.

期刊介绍： The conceptual foundations of physics have been under constant revision from the outset, and remain so today. Discussion of foundational issues has always been a major source of progress in science, on a par with empirical knowledge and mathematics. Examples include the debates on the nature of space and time involving Newton and later Einstein; on the nature of heat and of energy; on irreversibility and probability due to Boltzmann; on the nature of matter and observation measurement during the early days of quantum theory; on the meaning of renormalisation, and many others. Today, insightful reflection on the conceptual structure utilised in our efforts to understand the physical world is of particular value, given the serious unsolved problems that are likely to demand, once again, modifications of the grammar of our scientific description of the physical world. The quantum properties of gravity, the nature of measurement in quantum mechanics, the primary source of irreversibility, the role of information in physics – all these are examples of questions about which science is still confused and whose solution may well demand more than skilled mathematics and new experiments. Foundations of Physics is a privileged forum for discussing such foundational issues, open to physicists, cosmologists, philosophers and mathematicians. It is devoted to the conceptual bases of the fundamental theories of physics and cosmology, to their logical, methodological, and philosophical premises. The journal welcomes papers on issues such as the foundations of special and general relativity, quantum theory, classical and quantum field theory, quantum gravity, unified theories, thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, cosmology, and similar.
