The University of Bonn's research seminar series in history and philosophy
of physics will be online again, for the whole summer semester, and
everyone is invited to join. Besides regular research talks, we are adding
two new formats: debates and panels. On the 11th of May, Erik Curiel and
Christian Wüthrich will debate the merits of semi-classical gravity. On the
6th of July we'll have a panel session on the epistemology of very large
experiments, comparing and contrasting the event horizon telescope,
LIGO-Virgo and the large hadron collider, with Lydia Patton, Jamee Elder,
Christian Zeitnitz, Juliusz Doboszewski and Florian Boge. As usual, the
sessions take place on Tuesdays from 16:15 till 17:45 CEST. Our first
speaker, this Tuesday the 13th of April, will be Martin Lesourd (Black Hole
Initiative, Harvard & Clark University): "What can observers know about
their spacetime?".
