Philosophy as political technē: The tradition of invention in Simondon’s political thought
Gilbert Simondon has recently attracted the interest of political philosophers and theorists, despite he is rather renowned as a philosopher of technics – as the author of Of the Mode of Existence of Technical Objects – who also elaborated a general theory of complex systems in Individuation in the Light of the Notions of Form and Information. A group of scholars has developed Gilles Deleuze’s early suggestion that Simondon’s social ontology might offer the basis for a re-theorisation of radical democracy. Others, following Herbert Marcuse, have instead focused on Simondon’s analysis of the relationship between technology and society. However, only a joint study of Simondon’s two major works can reveal their implicit
political stakes. As I will argue, Simondon’s anti-Aristotelianism and his anti-Heideggerian understanding of the Greek origins of philosophy, allow us to conceive philosophical thought as a ‘tradition of invention’, that is, a pedagogical technē endowed with the political task of maintaining the openness of the social system and allowing normative invention to emerge from within
Del hombre a la materia: Simondon a la luz de Marx y Althusser
Una tentativa de aproximación conjunta de Simondon, Marx y Althusser se ve enfrentada con tres pensadores cuya distancia es puesta en evidencia por los pesos respectivos de sus historiografías filosóficas: puede ser que un día, cuando podamos comprender el pensamiento de Simondon a partir de sus efectos, podamos hablar de él en plural, así como hoy debemos elegir entre varios Marx y varios Althusser. Entonces hablaremos del Marx al que Simondon se refiere de manera polémica, en particular a través de su crítica del paradigma del trabajo, al cual le opone su nuevo paradigma, anti-sustancialista y anti-determinista. Este paradigma, que estaba lejos de las visiones oficiales de los partidos comunistas, era en medida compartido por Marx y Althusser. A los fines de aclarar esto, nos referiremos brevemente a diferentes aspectos de la filosofía de Althusser que, aunque fueron elaborados en otras matrices teóricas y políticas, suenan familiares a los de Simondon. Luego discutiremos –desde un punto de vista marxiano– los límites de la aproximación política simondoniana, para finalmente indicar, dentro de su epistemología, la fuente de una posible filosofía política materialista. Una crítica de la antropología de la libertad y la determinación, con la que Althusser trata nivel histórico, parece abrir un camino común. Este no es un camino que Simondon habría aceptado calificar como “materialista”, pero nos permite comprender aquello que su filosofía nos autoriza a pensar: de hecho, el propósito de nuestra intervención es sugerir que la “epistemología política” de Simondon nos lleva a responder a los presupuestos teóricos sobre los que se ha desarrollado el patrón dominante de la ciencia política moderna."De l'homme à la matière.

La société, «machine autant que vie»: régulation et invention politique entre Wiener, Canguilhem et Simondon
En reprenant, à la lumière des nouveaux acquis de la physique, la circulation conceptuelle entre la biologie, la technologie et les sciences sociales, qui s’était amorcée au début du XXe siècle, la philosophie de Simondon questionne l’image du monde que nous avons héritée de la première modernité. C’est à l’intérieur de ce cadre historico-philosophique qu’il réforme le paradigme bergsonien, qui oppose société close et société ouverte, et approfondit la critique formulée par Georges Canguilhem des mécanismes de régulation et d’autorégulation tant biologiques que politiques. En particulier, sa critique du concept d’« automate » donne forme à un modèle de système social qui peut contribuer à démystifier la conception moderne de la machine, qui hante encore nos représentations du système social, sans se replier sur le mythe ancien – tout à fait complémentaire – du corps politique. En fait, la philosophie de Simondon autorise l’esquisse d’un modèle de système social qui, répondant à la formule paradoxale de Canguilhem selon laquelle la société est «machine autant que vie», pourrait se définir comme étant une société à finalité émergente

Quantum fluctuations in atomic Josephson junctions: the role of dimensionality
We investigate the role of quantum fluctuations in the dynamics of a bosonic
Josephson junction in spatial dimensions, by using beyond mean-field
Gaussian corrections. We derive some key dynamical properties in a systematic
way for . In particular, we compute the Josephson frequency in the
regime of low population imbalance. We also obtain the critical strength of the
macroscopic quantum self-trapping. Our results show that quantum corrections
increase the Josephson frequency in spatial dimensions and , but
they decrease it in the case. The critical strength of macroscopic
quantum self-trapping is instead reduced by quantum fluctuations in and
cases, while it is enhanced in the configuration. We show that the
difference between the cases of D = 2 and D = 3 on one side, and D = 1 on the
other, can be related to the qualitatively different dependence of the
interaction strength on the scattering length in the different dimensions.Comment: 25 pages, 9 figures, 2 table
On-shell approximation for the -wave scattering theory
We investigate the scattering theory of two particles in a generic D-dimensional space. For the s-wave problem, by adopting an on-shell approximation for the T-matrix equation, we derive analytical formulas which connect the Fourier transform V similar to(k) of the interaction potential to the s-wave phase shift. In this way we obtain explicit expressions of the low-momentum parameters g similar to 0 and g similar to 2 of V similar to(k) = g similar to 0 + g similar to 2k2 + center dot center dot center dot in terms of the s-wave scattering length as and the s-wave effective range rs for D = 3, D = 2, and D = 1. Our results, which are strongly dependent on the spatial dimension D, are a useful benchmark for few-body and many-body calculations. As a specific application, we derive the zero-temperature pressure of a two-dimensional uniform interacting Bose gas with a beyond-mean-field correction which includes both scattering length and effective range

Cytenamide trifluoroacetic acid solvate
Cytenamide forms a 1:1 solvate with trifluoroacetic acid (systematic name: 5H-dibenzo[a, d] cycloheptatriene-5-carboxamide trifluoroacetic acid solvate), C16H13NO center dot C2HF3O2. The compound crystallizes with one molecule of cytenamide and one of trifluoroacetic acid in the asymmetric unit; these are linked by O-H center dot center dot center dot O and N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds to form an R-2(2)(8) motif. The trifluoromethyl group of the solvent molecule displays rotational disorder over two sites, with site-occupancy factors of 0.964 (4) and 0.036 (4)
