Galileo broke away from Aristotle’s incorrect theories of motion towards his own based on experimental evidence. He employed experimentation to discover the parabolic trajectory of projectile motion and also the Law of Fall. His work helped establish the scientific method and launch the scientific revolution.

Abstract In all legal systems, possession and property are inextricably linked. Game theory captures this relationship in the Hawk–Dove game: players competing for an asset are better off when the possessor plays Hawk and the intruder plays Dove (the bourgeois strategy) so that property can emerge as a spontaneous convention. This theory has been supported by large experimental evidence with animals. This paper presents a lab experiment where possession is manipulated to study the emergence of the property convention with human subjects. We show that the highest coordination emerges when possession is achieved meritoriously and that possession induces only bourgeois coordination (never antibourgeois).

The specific volumes and pressures in the saturated states of the pure liquids acetone, benzene, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride have been determined from a temperature of 100 °C and a pressure of about 2 atm up to the highest temperatures and pressures at which liquid and vapor coexist. The critical temperatures have been determined by the method of disappearance of meniscus, critical densities from the law of the rectilinear diameter, and critical pressures by extrapolation of the log P vs. 1/T line to the critical temperature.
