What does history have to do with science?

Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

What is science?

A search for truth

(and what is truth?)

A methodical form to seek knowledge

A coherent body of knowledge in a certain area

A way to increase the knowledge of humanity

An experience that increases our awareness of the way things are

What is science?

“We find ourselves in a bewildering world. We want to make sense of what we see around us and to ask: What is the nature of the universe? What is our place in it and where did it and we come from? Why is it the way it is?” 

From A Brief History of Time

by Stephen Hawkins

How does it work?

from Thomas Kuhn in The Structure of Scientific Revolution

Paradigm: “… accepted examples of scientific practice [that] provide models from which spring particular coherent traditions of scientific research.”

“… normal-scientific research is directed to the articulation of those phenomena and theories that the paradigm already supplies.”

“New and unsuspected phenomena, …are repeatedly uncovered by scientific research… “

“… characteristic shifts in the scientific community’s conception of its legitimate problems and standards… [did not occur] from some methodologically lower to some higher type.“

“…considerations that lead can lead scientist to reject an old paradigm in favor of a new… appeal to the individual’s sense of the appropriate and the aesthetic.”

How we go about it?

Underlying principles

Matter is composed of atoms and molecules.

Atoms differ by their atomic number; molecules differ by the atoms that form them and by their molecular structure.

The behavior of matter depends on the physical and chemical properties of the atoms and molecules that compose it.

How did the Greeks go about it?

:

Greek word meaning indivisible.

Democritus

All that exists is atoms in the void.

Plato

Atoms have different geometries that give a substance its characteristics.

Processes

Greeks• Substances are made of

combinations of the four elements

• Substances behave according to the combination of the four elements

• The elements move according to their nature

The Nanoscopic World:

Moderns• Substances are made of

elements in the periodic table

• Substances behave according to the elements that compose them

• Energies and forces determine the movement and reactivity of the elements

Atoms Are Composed of Elementary Particles−Central nucleus with two particle types:

• Neutrons (no charge)• Positively charged protons

−Negatively charged electrons found around and about the nucleus

Electrons Are In Constant Motion−Individual electrons localized into regions

of space with defined energy−Electron transitions occur in defined

increments (energy is quantized)

Energy of interaction− Heat (q): change in thermal energy reservoir during a physical, chemical, or

biological process (q=ΔH when pressure is constant)

− Entropy (S): measure of the number of ways objects can interact

− Gibbs free energy (ΔG): ΔG = ΔH – TΔS− ΔG < 0 spontaneous process (additional energy not required)− ΔG = 0 equilibrium situation− ΔG > 0 non-spontaneous process

At the nanoscale, energy can flow between internal energy, in the form of chemical bonds, and useable energy or heat (ΔH).
