Typically, one is interested in the degree to which a successor to a given theory "goes beyond" (both descriptively and explanatorily) the theory it succeeds. Most often these issues are framed in the context of reductive relations between theories. When does a theory T T ? How is one to understand the nature of this reduction relation? Interestingly, there are two distinct, yet, related ways of understanding the reductive relationship between T and T 1. The Philosopher's Sense of Reduction 2. The Physicist's Sense of Reduction 3. Intertheory Relations Bibliography ... Related Entries 1. Philosopher's Sense of Reduction Most contemporary discussions of reductive relations between a pair of theories owe considerable debt to the work by Ernest Nagel. In

[VERSION EN ESPANOL] The music is an art in wich you combine the sounds to produce an esthetic impression. Physics is an exact science. It studies the general properties of the bodies and the laws which tend to modify their state or their movement without modifying their nature.

The support of APS members is vital to the work of the Forum, both because Forum activities are coordinated by its active members and the financial support the Forum receives from the APS depends on its membership. All APS members may join two Forums free of charge. Join the FPS Now! PHYSICS AND SOCIETY Latest issue, April 2004 January 2004 ...

SRF utility Radiative Transfer Model This software uses the OPTRAN transmittance model to calculate instrument radiances and brightness temperatures and their Jacobians (K-matrix). Subprogram documentation. Initialisation and destruction functions Forward model functions K-matrix model functions Adjoint model functions ... Tangent-linear model functions The interfaces to the forward and K-matrix model routines have not been overloaded for anything other than M profiles and L channels where M and L > 1. Thus at least two profiles and two channels must be processed per call. The code was written for multiple profile/channel input to minimise argument passing/copying. The profile inputs are based on the GDAS model output. Apart from the interface (LEVEL) pressure, all the other profile inputs are LAYER quantities. If you want to use the RTM with LEVEL based input, e.g. a sonde profile, you will need to convert the level data into layer average values. Module documentation list Software Beta 1.3 unix tarball
