具體描述

Sabine Hossenfelder has grown up in Frankfurt, Germany. She has a PhD in physics from the University of Frankfurt. Since 2006 she has written the popular weblog Backreaction. Her writing has been published, among others, in Scientific American, New Scientist, NOVA, Aeon, Nautilus, and Quanta Magazine.

Sabine is presently a Research Fellow at the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies. Her first book "Lost in Math: How Beauty Leads Physics Astray" was published by Basic Books in June 2018.

A contrarian argues that modern physicists' obsession with beauty has given us wonderful math but bad science

Whether pondering black holes or predicting discoveries at CERN, physicists believe the best theories are beautiful, natural, and elegant, and this standard separates popular theories from disposable ones. This is why, Sabine Hossenfelder argues, we have not seen a major breakthrough in the foundations of physics for more than four decades. The belief in beauty has become so dogmatic that it now conflicts with scientific objectivity: observation has been unable to confirm mindboggling theories, like supersymmetry or grand unification, invented by physicists based on aesthetic criteria. Worse, these "too good to not be true" theories are actually untestable and they have left the field in a cul-de-sac. To escape, physicists must rethink their methods. Only by embracing reality as it is can science discover the truth.

##2019-05-27 想讀 有評論說她在車軲轆話來迴說,但采訪瞭這麼多當代一流物理學傢,結果大傢都說一類的話,也說明問題吧。

##跟想的不一樣,以為會有概念上的發展和論證,結果一直是舉例子講故事重復觀點。。

##這篇文章跟弦論、物理學沒有關係。之所以寫在這裏是將所有對將數學正確性與物理現實混為一談的錯誤的批判集中在一起。對於純粹數學而言,古希臘式的數學也隻是一種有用的虛構。在其他科學中數學工具應該是古巴比倫式的而非古希臘式的。 文:傑伊·恩格爾(CJay Engel) 譯:禪...

##E送我的書。不同學科間存在的問題還是很有共性的。

##作者花瞭接近全書的篇幅用來論證一個觀點:近三十多年來,基礎物理學的理論研究因為缺少數據而陷入依賴審美構建甚至評估理論的窘境。Hossenfelder將她多年來在媒體上積纍的寫作功力用於這本書,從而得以將艱深的理論物理學的睏境解釋給非專業人士。從這本書齣發,讀者可以順著這條綫索繼續摸索:理論物理的下一步是什麼?
