This paper scrutinises the tenability of a strict conceptual distinction between space(time) and matter via the lens of the debate between modified gravity and dark matter. In particular, we consider Berezhiani and Khoury's novel ‘superfluid dark m

Against Laplacian Reduction of Newtonian Mass to Spatiotemporal Quantities

Autor: Niels C.M. Martens

Publikováno v: Foundations of Physics. 48:591-609

Laplace wondered about the minimal choice of initial variables and parameters corresponding to a well-posed initial value problem. Discussions of Laplace’s problem in the literature have focused on choosing between spatiotemporal variables relative
