Abstract (english)
The chapter recapitulates the formulation, elaboration, and explanation of the author's thesis about the poietical character of modern experimental non-relativistic quantum physics, which is basically an Aristotelian redefinition of the the ‘creation view’ of scientific experimentation, as opposed to the traditional ‘discovery view’. After analyzing the ‘discovery view’ and its criticism both in traditional and contemporary contexts, by a detailed analysis of the net of Aristotelian causes and ontological modalities in quantum experiments it is demonstrated that the present criticism of the ‘creation view’ is valid only partially, and inapplicable to techno-phenomena of modern experimental quantum mechanics, which moreover offers the strongest case for the ‘creation view’ of scientific experimentation. The proposed techno-phenomenology of experimental quantum mechanics is then analyzed in the context of a specific view on the relationship between science and technology, and of the traditional Aristotelian three-fold division of human knowledge, which finally places quantum mechanics among poetical sciences and understands its ontological and epistemic scopes as a realism of the poietical kind, applicable not only to the relationship between the quantum world and experimental instruments but also between the instruments and its makers, knowing subjects.
