赫伯特·丁格尔与《科学在十字路口》

Herbert Dingle and "Science at the Crossroads"

Taha Sochi

AI总结:

本文致敬丁格尔早期从哲学和逻辑角度重新评估狭义相对论的呼吁,但批评其混淆科学本质与解释,并强调科学公正与伦理。

摘要:

本文向赫伯特·丁格尔致敬,因为他早期呼吁从哲学和逻辑的角度重新评估狭义相对论。然而,我们在多个问题上与丁格尔意见相左,特别是他未能区分狭义相对论的科学本质(以实验支持的洛伦兹变换及其形式推论和后果为代表,我们称之为“洛伦兹变换的力学”)与爱因斯坦的逻辑不一致的解释(这主要基于庞加莱的哲学和认识论观点)。我们也不同意他在反对狭义相对论的运动中所采取的方式和态度,尽管我们普遍同意他的观点,即科学界和科学媒体对科学理论和意见应保持公正,以及总体上完全尊重科学伦理和道德行为准则的必要性。

英文摘要:

In this article we pay tribute to Herbert Dingle for his early call to re-assess special relativity from philosophical and logical perspectives. However, we disagree with Dingle about a number of issues particularly his failure to distinguish between the scientific essence of special relativity (as represented by the experimentally-supported Lorentz transformations and their formal implications and consequences which we call "the mechanics of Lorentz transformations") and the logically inconsistent interpretation of Einstein (which is largely based on the philosophical and epistemological views of Poincare). We also disagree with him about his manner and attitude which he adopted in his campaign against special relativity although we generally agree with him about the necessity of impartiality of the scientific community and the scientific press towards scientific theories and opinions as well as the necessity of total respect to the ethics of science and the rules of moral conduct in general.
