In a postscript to "Mad Pain and Martian Pain" (published in Philosophical Papers, Volume I), Lewis takes a critical view of qualia.He explicitly identifies pain with qualia, observing that, "We say to the friend of qualia that, beneath his tendentious jargon, he is just talking pain and various aspects of its functional role."
A superlattice is a periodic structure of layers of two (or more) materials. Typically, the thickness of one layer is several nanometers . It can also refer to a lower-dimensional structure such as an array of quantum dots or quantum wells .
The experience of pain is, due to its seeming universality, a very good portal through which to view various aspects of human life. Discussions in philosophy of mind concerning qualia has given rise to a body of knowledge called philosophy of pain , [ 1 ] which is about pain in the narrow sense of physical pain , and which must be distinguished ...
Alternatively, Hippocrates believed that pain was caused by an imbalance in the vital fluids of a human. At this time, Aristotle did not believe that the brain had any role to play in pain processing, but rather implicated the heart as the central organ for the sensation of pain. [4]
The Visible Human Project is an effort to create a detailed data set of cross-sectional photographs of the human body, in order to facilitate anatomy visualization applications. It is used as a tool for the progression of medical findings, in which these findings link anatomy to its audiences. [ 1 ]
Hyperalgesia (/ ˌ h aɪ p ər æ l ˈ dʒ iː z i ə / or /-s i ə /; hyper from Greek ὑπέρ (huper) 'over' + -algesia from Greek ἄλγος (algos) 'pain') is an abnormally increased sensitivity to pain, which may be caused by damage to nociceptors or peripheral nerves and can cause hypersensitivity to stimulus.
Wendy’s is beginning 2025 with a special deal to celebrate 25 years since the turn of the century. The burger chain announced that customers can purchase a Wendy’s Dave’s Single for 25 cents ...
The tuning of the chemical potential at the shape resonance can be obtained by changing: the charge density and/or the superlattice structural parameters, and/or the superlattice misfit strain and/or the disorder. Direct evidence for shape resonances in superstripes matter is provided by the anomalous variation of the isotope effect on the ...
