AB  - Identifying optimal ways of organizing exploration in particle physics mega-labs is a challenging task that requires a combination of case-based and formal epistemic approaches. Data-driven studies suggest that projects pursued by smaller master-teams (fewer members, fewer sub-teams) are substantially more efficient than larger ones across sciences, including experimental particle physics. Smaller teams also seem to make better project choices than larger, centralized teams. Yet the epistemic requirement of small, decentralized, and diverse teams contradicts the often emphasized and allegedly inescapable logic of discovery that forces physicists pursuing the fundamental levels of the physical world to perform centralized experiments in mega-labs at high energies. We explain, however, that this epistemic requirement could be met, since the nature of theoretical and physical constraints in high energy physics and the technological obstacles stemming from them turn out to be surprisingly open-ended.
AB  - Identifikovanje optimalnih načina organizovanja istraživanja u mega laboratorijama fizike če-stica je izazovan zadatak koji zahteva kombinaciju studija pojedinačnih slučajeva i pristupa formalne epistemičke analize. Studije zasnovane na podacima ukazuju na to da su projekti koje izvode manji master timovi (manji broj članova, manje pod-timova) znatno efikasniji od onih većih u različitim oblastima nauka, uključujući eksperimentalnu fiziku čestica. Manji ti-movi takođe prave bolje izbore projekata na kojima će raditi od većih, centralizovanih timova. Pa ipak, epistemički opravdani zahtev sa što manjim, decentralizovanim i raznolikim timova je u suprotnosti sa često naglašenom i navodno neizbežnom logikom otkrića koja prisiljava fizičare koji istražuju osnovne nivoe fizičkog sveta da izvode centralizovane eksperimente u mega-laboratorijama na veoma velikim energijama. Naš je argument, međutim, da bi taj epi-stemički zahtev mogao ipak biti ispunjen, jer su priroda teorijskih i fizičkih ograničenja u fizici visokih energija i tehnološke prepreke koje iz njih proizilaze iznenađujuće otvoreni.

The Rebirth of the Morphogenetic Field as an Explanatory Tool in Biology

AB  - I discuss two uses of the concept of the morphogenetic field, a tool
of the 19th century biology motivated by particular ontological views of the
time, which has been re-emerging and increasingly relevant in explaining
microbiological phenomena. I also consider the relation of these uses to the
Central Dogma of modern biology as well as Modern Synthesis of Darwinism
and genetics. An induced morphogenetic field is determined by a physical
(e.g., gravitational) field, or it acquires a physical (e.g., visco-elastic) field’s
characteristics. Such a morphogenetic field presents only a weak challenge
to the Central Dogma of Modern Synthesis by indirectly, albeit severely, constraining
variability at the molecular level. I discuss explanations that introduce
structural inheritance in ciliate protozoa, as well as the experimental
evidence on which these arguments are based. The global cellular morphogenetic
field is a unit of such inheritance. I discuss relevant cases of structural
inheritance in ciliates that bring about internal cellular as well as functional
changes and point out that DNA is absent in the cortex and that RNA controls
neither intermediary nor the global level of the field. I go on to argue
that utilizing knowledge of known physical fields may advance explanations
and understanding of the morphogenetic field in ciliates as the unit of both
development and inheritance.
