  • Technological Instruments in Physics
    DRAFT (d.d. Dec. 14th 2006). This article has been published in: A Companion to Philosophy of Technology, (2009). Jan-Kyrre Berg Olsen, Stig Andur Pedersen, Vincent F. Hendricks (eds.), Blackwell Companions to Philosophy Series, Blackwell Publishers. 78-84. Please quote or cite from the published article. INSTRUMENTS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MIEKE BOON Department of Philosophy, University of Twente, P.O. Box 217, 7500 AE Enschede, The Netherlands. E- mail: [email protected] Modern science and technology are interwoven into a complex that is sometimes called 'techno-science': the progress of science is dependent on the sophistication of instrumentation, whereas the progress of ‘high-tech’ instruments and apparatus is dependent on scientific research. Yet, how scientific research contributes to the development of instruments and apparatus for technological use, has not been systematically addressed in the philosophy of technology, nor in the philosophy of science. Philosophers of technology have taken an interest in the specific character of technological knowledge as distinct from scientific knowledge, thereby ignoring the contribution of scientific knowledge to technological developments. Philosophers of science such as the so-called New-Experimentalists, on the other hand, recently has become interested in the role of instrumentation, but merely focus on their role in testing scientific theories. By reviewing the two distinct developments and taking them a step further, an alternative explanation of the interwoveness of science and technology in scientific research is proposed. Additional to testing theories, instruments in scientific practice have an important role in producing reproducible phenomena, and these phenomena may have technological applications. Subsequently, technological development of these applications requires theoretical understanding of the phenomenon and of materials and physical conditions that produce it, is not for the sake of theories about the world, but for the sake of understanding a phenomenon and how it is technologically produced.

Alberti Many histories of scientific instruments concentrate on their manufacture and original function, but such artefacts as survive often do so in collections – many will have spent far longer in a museum than anywhere else. Alongside the rich literature on the history of scientific instruments, accordingly, there is a body of work on the histories of scientific instrument collections. This survey outlines genres and themes in the historiography of scientific instruments, focusing in particular on display and other collection-based functions. Fluid and contingent, collections are instrumental in the history, heritage, and historiography of science. THERE is an extensive literature on the history of what culture of science, from buildings to herbarium sheets. we now term scientific instruments. As a result, we Neither will the literatures on specific categories of know a great deal about how devices such as telescopes, instruments be addressed in detail, rather I follow the clocks and astrolabes were made and used, especially flow of those who reflect on scientific instruments more those dating from the seventeenth to the nineteenth broadly.2 Finally, it is important to acknowledge my centuries.

  • SIC Bibliography 15
    Scientific Instrument Commission Bibliography 15 This bibliography covers the year 1998, but it also contains titles published in 1997 which only came to the compiler's notice after publication of the Fourteenth Bibliography in June 1998. In the Fourteenth Bibliography, which covered the years 1996 and 1997, no articles were included from the Bulletin of the Scientific Instrument Society and from Rittenhouse: Journal of the American Scientific Instrument Enterprise. As these journals are devoted exclusively to instruments, no reference to their contents was deemed necessary. Members of the scientific instrument community have expressed their regret over this, and in the present bibliography articles from both journals published in 1996, 1997 and 1998 have been included. The compiler is grateful to friends and colleagues who kindly sent titles for inclusion in this bibliography. Publications, or notices of publication (please with ISBN), for inclusion in the forthcoming bibliography may be sent to the SIC Secretary.

The design is such that it can be manufactured for use in most labs throughout the world with open source RepRap-class material extrusion-based 3-D printers for the mechanical components and readily available open source electronics including the Arduino Nano. Several versions of the design were fabricated and tested for precision and accuracy for a range of load cells. The results showed the open source scale was found to be repeatable within 0.1g with multiple load cells, with even better precision (0.01g) depending on load cell range and style. The scale tracks linearly with proprietary lab-grade scales, meeting the performance specified in the load cell data sheets, indicating that it is accurate across the range of the load cell installed. The smallest loadcell tested(100g) offers precision on the order of a commercial digital mass balance.

  • ©JSR2009 Instruments of Science: Their Social Dimensions 1/14
    ©JSR2009 Instruments of Science: their social dimensions Instruments of Science: their social dimensions Dr John S. Reid, Honorary Curator, Natural Philosophy Collection of Historic Scientific Instruments, University of Aberdeen This is the text of an evening talk given on 3rd March 2009 in the University of Aberdeen. The talk was illustrated with PowerPoint slides, each of which usually contained several images. I have included here a single thumbnail image from most slides, to suggest the illustrations. The talk was also accompanied by a small display of instruments from the Natural Philosophy Collection that illuminated some of the points made. Introduction I’ve seen a great many historic scientific instruments over the decades, in many collections, and can certainly vouch for the fact that the University of Aberdeen’s collection is rich by any standards. The collection has an obvious relevance to various aspects of the history of science and technology but it also has cultural relevance that is often undervalued. Cars may be built by robots in factories but science has always been carried out by people, people deeply embedded in the culture of their times. Today, science is more embedded in society than ever before. A day after Barack Obama was inaugurated in January of this year, the Speaker of the House of Representatives was interviewed about what the new plan was to revive the US economy. She replied: "SCIENCE, science, science and science". In a way, then, it’s topical to look at some of the social dimensions of instruments of science. The title of my talk doesn’t give much away.

With the advent of No 50 it was decided to amalgamate the earlier work and create a single index for all 50 issues. The work involved was a vast undertaking requiring the use of optical character recognition and other computer techniques on the earlier work, and a good deal of careful proof reading. The final product was handsomely produced in A4 size uniform with the Bulletin, running to 64 index pages. Having reached 80 issues, a similar combining exercise has been done, but with fewer categories within the Index. However, whilst the main index of individual topics remains as comprehensive as previously it is presented in a smaller typeface and makes use of more columns. At the time of printing, consideration is being given to the use of this new Index as a facility on the Society's website and also in connection with CDROMs of the Bulletin. Notes for using the 3 sections of the Bulletin Index, Issue No 1 to Issue No 80 Index of Topics Topics are arranged alphabetically by subject.
