- Causality and Intervention in the Spin-Echo Experiments FERNANDA SAMANIEGO Filosofía Causality irreversibility interventionism explanatory depth In the so-called “Spin-Echo Experiments” the behaviour of a spin’s system seems to violate the second law of thermodynamics. For this reason the “Spin-Echo Experiments” are considered of particular interest for the Foundations of Physics. Interventionists have provided a classical explanation (Blatt 1959; Ridderbos & Redhead 1998) and a quantum-based explanation (Hemmo & Shenker 2005) of these experiments. Here both interventionist explanations are assessed by means of the Manipulability Theory of Causal Explanation (Woodward 2003). It is argued that interventionism would gain explanatory depth by providing functional relations and predicting relaxation times. 2013 artículo científico 0495-4548 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=339730823009 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3397 THEORIA.
