The methodology of physics in pursuing the beauty of truth:From the falsifiability of science to Occam's razor principle
This article discusses why the development of physics follows the principle of"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication"from the perspective of the philosophy of science.It explores how the pursuit of simplicity in science leads to more effective approaches in approaching scientific truths.Drawing from considerations of scientific methodology,it explains why alsifiability is a crucial factor in discovering scientific truths within physics,necessitating adherence to Occam's razor principle.The article emphasizes that this principle not only guides scientific thinking but also serves as a criterion for evaluating scientific practices.Given recent instances of certain unethical practices in physics research blurring ethical lines,the article suggests that deviating from the Occam's razor principle might be a methodological root of such issues.
