~~NOCACHE~~ ~~NOTOC~~ ====== The Seventh PHYSICS & PHILOSOPHY Meeting - SUMMER SCHOOL "The Chimera of Entropy" ====== ===== July 2018 ===== <panel type="success" title="Summer School" subtitle="Physics and Philosophy, 16-21 July 2018"> **2018: The Chimera of Entropy** Entropy is among the most important but also most perplexing concepts in physics. It is also a polymorphic concept: introduced in thermodynamics, we now find it in statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics, information theory, and black hole physics, to name just the most obvious. In this summer school, we will systematically explore the various concepts of entropy as they are used in state-of-the-art physics and evaluate their philosophical interpretations. The summer school will consist in lectures and research talks. Participants will have the opportunity to present their work in short talks. We would like to emphasize that we are happy to accept scholars at any stage of their career (from students to senior faculty) as participants. ---- **Scientific Comittee**: * Tim Maudlin (Philosophy, New York University) * Franjo Sokolić (Physics, University of Split) * Christian Wüthrich (Philosophy, University of Geneva) ---- **Organizing Committee**: Irena Bitunjac, Martina Požar and Tomislav Primorac ---- [[2018:program|PROGRAM & SCHEDULE]] ---- [[2018:Application|HOW TO APPLY]] ---- ^Held at:|||| ^{{:2016:logo.png?75nolink|}}|Department of Physics.
