Conceptual Analysis, Theory Construction, and Conceptual Elucidation

Almost a half century after the publication of the Philosophical Investigations, it seems important to ask why Wittgenstein"s ideas have had so little impact on contemporary discussions in the philosophy of mind. A clue can be discerned by what Georges Rey says in the introduction to his book on contemporary philosophy of mind. Rey announces at the outset to his readers that his treatment of the mind aspires to be continuous with science, not with literature. He explains that there is a recent resurgence of interest in the philosophy of mind with "explanatory questions� about what sort of thing a pain, a thought, a mental image, a desire, or an emotion is. Neither materialism nor dualism provides a "serious� theory about the mind, which will give us a "serious� explanation of mental phenomena. According to Rey, although old-style grammatical investigations may have given us a "heightened sensitivity to complexities and nuances of our ordinary mental talk,� they "tended to occur at the expense of further theorizing about the mental phenomena themselves� (Rey, 4)

Četiri vrste vodenih stjenica (Heteroptera, Gerromorpha) nove za hrvatsku faunu s bilješkama o rasprostranjenju

During the last few years (1994-1997) the author collected true bugs (Heteroptera) in Croatia. Analysis of that material produced four species of semiaquatic bugs not recorded in Croatia before: Mesovelia furcata Mls. & Rey, Gerris asper (Fieb.), G. maculatus (Tam.) and G. odontogaster (Zett.). This paper also contains distributional notes on these species. All specimens are deposited in the author\u27s private collection.During the last few years (1994-1997) the author collected true bugs (Heteroptera) in Croatia.

Functional Relation of interquark potential with interquark distance

The functional relation between interquark potential and interquark distance is explicitly derived by considering the Nambu--Goto action in the $AdS_5 \times S^5$ background. It is also shown that a similar relation holds in a general background. The implications of this relation for confinement are briefly discussed.Comment: 11pages, 2 figures, reference adde

Antimatter from supersymmetric dark matter

We propose low-energy antideuterons in cosmic rays as a new possible signature for indirect detection of supersymmetric dark matter. Since the energy spectrum of the antiproton secondary component is still spoilt by considerable theoretical uncertainties, looking for low-energy antideuterons seems a plausible alternative. We apply our calculation to the AMS experiment, when mounted on the International Spatial Station. If a few low-energy antideuterons will be discovered by AMS, this should be seriously taken as a clue for the existence of relic, massive neutralinos in the dark halo of our Galaxy.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures, Talk presented at the 4th International Symposium On Sources And Detection Of Dark Matter In The Universe (DM 2000), Marina del Rey, California, 23-25 Feb. 200
